Description

Lid, container with lid, and combination of lid and container

[0001] The present invention relates to a lid, a container with a lid, and a combination of a lid and a container.

[0002] BACKGROUND ART It is common practice to place food, beverages, etc. (hereinafter also referred to as "contents") in a container with an opening at the top and then attach a lid to provide the container in a closed state.

[0003] From the viewpoint of reducing the environmental impact and the use of petroleum raw materials, it is desirable to use lids made of paper-based materials for lids attached to containers. A known method for attaching a lid to a container is to join the lid to the edge that forms the outer periphery of the opening at the top of the container using a method such as heat pressing (sealing method). To consume the contents from a container with a lid attached (a container with a lid), as shown in Patent Document 1, the lid is peeled off (removed) from the edge of the container, and the lid may also be partially destroyed to form an opening in the container with a lid.

[0004] JP 2014-84128 A

[0005] When the contents contained in the container with a lid are those that release steam or gas, such as hot beverages or cold carbonated beverages, the release of steam or gas increases the internal pressure of the container with a lid, and the liquid in the released steam or gas increases the internal pressure of the container with a lid. This leaves room for improvement in terms of preventing the lid from bursting or separating from the container at a timing unintended by the user. Preventing the lid from bursting or separating from the container at a timing unintended by the user is also important from the perspective of preventing liquid components that leak out of the container while mixed with the gas from coming into contact with the user's body.

[0006] In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide a lid, a container with a lid, and a combination of a lid and a container that can prevent the lid from bursting or the container from separating when the internal pressure inside the container with a lid increases while the container is in the lid-equipped state.

[0007] The present invention is summarized as follows (1) to (11).

[0008] (1) A lid configured to be attached to a container having an opening and a rim that defines the opening, the lid having a top surface that covers the opening when attached to the container, the top surface having a plurality of paper-based substrates and a layered structure in which the plurality of paper-based substrates are stacked, each of the plurality of paper-based substrates having a plurality of fibers, the paper-based substrates having a structure in which the plurality of fibers cross so as to form a gas passage connecting the facing surface to the exposed surface when one of the surfaces of the paper-based substrates directly or indirectly facing the opening of the container is defined as an opposing surface and the other surface opposite the opposing surface is defined as an exposed surface, the paper-based substrate has a structure in which the plurality of fibers cross so as to form a gas passage connecting the facing surface to the exposed surface, and the layered structure has a partial adhesive portion in which at least two of the paper-based substrates are partially adhered.

(11) A combination of a lid and a container, comprising the lid according to (1) above and the container having the opening formed at an upper end and a rim forming the outer periphery of the opening.

[0009] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a lid made of a paper-based material, a container with a lid, and a combination of a lid and a container that can prevent the lid from bursting or the container from separating when the internal pressure inside the container with a lid increases while the container is in the lid-equipped state.

[0011] An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The description will be made in the following order: 1. First embodiment, 2. Second embodiment, 3. Third embodiment, and 4. Application example. In this specification and the drawings, components having substantially the same functional configuration are designated by the same reference numerals, and redundant description will be omitted.

[0012] The following description is of a preferred specific example of the present invention, and the content of the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. Furthermore, in the following description, directions such as front-to-back, left-to-right, and up-down are indicated for the sake of convenience, but the content of the present invention is not limited to these directions. In the examples of FIGS. 1 and 2, the Z-axis direction is the up-down direction (upper side is the +Z direction, lower side is the -Z direction), the X-axis direction is the front-to-back direction (front side is the +X direction, rear side is the -X direction), and the Y-axis direction is the left-to-right direction (right side is the +Y direction, left side is the -Y direction), and the description will be based on this. The same applies to FIGS. 3 to 12.

[0013] The relative size and thickness ratios of each layer shown in each drawing, such as Fig. 1, are shown for convenience and do not limit the actual size ratios. The definitions of these directions and size ratios also apply to each drawing, such as Fig. 2 to Fig. 12.

[0014] The lid of the present invention will be described using an example of a lid used for a container (cup) for holding a fluid such as a coffee cup or other beverage. However, the lid is not limited to a lid for a beverage container and can also be used for a container for holding food products containing liquid other than beverages. Furthermore, the lid of the present invention may also be used for containers that can hold various liquid items other than food and beverages. Furthermore, while the lid of the present invention will be described below using an example of a lid that is circular in plan view, the shape of the lid is not limited to a circular shape in plan view and can be applied to various shapes other than a circle, such as an ellipse, a polygonal shape such as a rectangle or a triangle, a chamfered rectangle, or a chamfered polygon. However, from the perspective of further enhancing the effects of the present invention, it is preferable that the lid be attached to a container that contains a mixed fluid or a substance containing a mixed fluid.

[0015] In this specification, a mixed fluid refers to a fluid having a gas phase containing gas and a liquid phase containing liquid, and examples thereof include a liquid having bubbles (in this case, the gas phase is the gas within the bubbles and the liquid phase is composed of the liquid surrounding the bubbles) and a fluid having (dispersed) aerosol-like droplets in a gas (in this case, the gas phase is the gas surrounding the aerosol-like droplets and the liquid phase is composed of the liquid that forms the droplets).

[0016] As described above, the contents to be contained within the container with a lid may be a fluid (liquid fluid) such as a liquid substance that emits steam or gas, such as a hot beverage or a cold carbonated beverage, and in this specification, such liquid fluids that emit steam or gas, such as a hot beverage or a cold carbonated beverage, may be referred to as a gas-releasing fluid.

[0017] [1. First Embodiment] [1-1 Configuration] The lid 10 according to the first embodiment is configured so that it can be attached (adhered) to an edge 103 of an opening 102 of a container 101, as will be described later using Figures 12A, 12B, etc. In other words, the lid 10 is configured so that a contactable area that comes into contact with the edge 103 of a container 101 having an opening 102 can be formed on the opposing surface of the lid 10. A container 101 in which the lid 10 is attached to the edge 103 of the opening 102 is referred to as a lidded container 150. The lid 10 is configured so that it can cover the opening 102 of the container 101 that constitutes the lidded container 150.

[0018] In this specification, the opposing surface 73 of the lid 10 refers to the surface opposite to the exposed surface 72, and the exposed surface 72 of the lid 10 refers to the surface exposed to the outside when the lid-equipped container 150 is in the lid-equipped container state. Therefore, the opposing surface 73 refers to the surface of the top surface 11 of the lid 10 that faces the container 101 when the lid-equipped container 150 is in the lid-equipped container state. In describing each part of the lid 10, for example, with respect to a surface such as the top surface 11, a surface facing the same direction as the exposed surface 72 of the lid 10 may be simply referred to as the exposed surface, and a surface facing the same direction as the opposing surface 73 of the lid 10 may be simply referred to as the opposing surface. Therefore, of the surfaces of the paper-based substrate described below, the surface that directly or indirectly faces the opening of the container may be referred to as the opposing surface, and the surface opposite the opposing surface may be referred to as the exposed surface. This also applies to the second and third embodiments.

[0019] The lid body 10 has a top surface 11. In the example shown in Figures 1A to 1D, the lid body 10 has the top surface 11 and a portion (outer edge portion 12) outside the top surface 11. The outer edge portion 12 is configured as a part of an outer region corresponding portion 95C (described later) (the portion of the outer region corresponding portion 95C excluding the joint region corresponding portion 95A). In Figure 1A etc., the symbol CT indicates the center of the lid region corresponding portion 95B.

[0020] 1A to 1D , the top surface 11 is configured to be attachable to a container having an opening 102 and an edge 103 that forms the opening 102, and covers the opening 102 of the container 101 when the lid 10 is attached (bonded) to the container 101. The shape of the top surface 11 may be determined according to the shape of the container 101, and examples of such shapes include a circular shape, an elliptical shape, a triangular shape, a rectangular shape, a polygonal shape, and a chamfered shape.

[0021] (Contactable Area) The lid 10 has a contactable area on the opposing surface 73 side of the top surface 11. The contactable area in the lid 10 is defined as a bonding area R. In the present invention, the bonding area R is an area (adhesion area) where the lid 10 and the edge 103 of the container are bonded to each other. The bonding area R is defined as an area corresponding to the shape of the edge 103 of the container 101, and when the edge 103 is formed in a roughly circular shape as in the example shown in FIG. 1A , the bonding area R becomes a circular shape.

[0022] The lid body 10 has a joint area corresponding portion 95A. As shown in Figures 1A, 1B, 1C, etc., the lid body 10 also has a lid area corresponding portion 95B and an outer area corresponding portion 95C. The lid area corresponding portion 95B is configured as a portion that covers the opening 102. The outer area corresponding portion 95C is configured as a portion that is further outward than the lid area corresponding portion 95B.

[0023] When viewed in a plane, the top surface 11 is the part inward from the outer peripheral edge of the joint area corresponding part 95A of the lid body 10, and in the example of Figure 1A, etc., it can be identified as the part that combines the joint area corresponding part 95A and the lid area corresponding part 95B.

[0024] (Joining Area Corresponding Portion) The joining area corresponding portion 95A is a portion of the lid 10 corresponding to a region that is joined to the container 101 along the edge 103 of the container 101. That is, the joining area corresponding portion 95A is a portion of the lid 10 that corresponds to the joining area R (a region facing the edge 103 of the container 101 and that is joined to the container 101) that will be the adhesive region. In the lid-equipped container 150, the joining area corresponding portion 95A is a portion of the lid 10 that forms the contact portion 151 between the lid 10 and the container 101. Specifically, in a plan view of the lid 10 (when the line of sight is in the Z-axis direction (up and down direction) in the examples of FIGS. 1A to 1C ), the portion that forms the joining area R is defined as the joining area corresponding portion 95A. The joining area corresponding portion 95A is typically formed in a ring shape as shown in FIG. 1A . In particular, as shown in FIG. 12A , when the edge 103 of the container 101 is formed in a generally annular shape, the bonding region R is annular, and the bonding region corresponding portion 95A is also generally annular in a plan view of the lid 10. The outer edge of the bonding region corresponding portion 95A is determined according to the position of the outer edge of the bonding region R. The outer edge of the bonding region corresponding portion 95A may be located on the outer peripheral edge of the lid 10 (in which case, the bonding region corresponding portion 95A and the outer region corresponding portion 95C coincide), or may be located inside the outer peripheral edge of the lid 10 as shown in the example of FIG. 1A . When the bonding region R between the lid 10 and the container 101 is not formed continuously, the portion sandwiched between adjacent bonding regions R and facing the edge 103 is also included in the bonding region corresponding portion 95A, which will be described later.

[0025] (Lid region corresponding portion) The lid region corresponding portion 95B is a portion that covers the opening 102 (a portion located directly above the opening 102) when the lidded container 150 is in the state shown in FIG. 1A , the lid region corresponding portion 95B is a portion of the lid 10 that is inward from the joining region corresponding portion 95A. The lid region corresponding portion 95B is a portion that covers the opening 102 in the lidded container 150. Note that the portion that covers the opening 102 refers to a portion that covers at least a portion of the opening 102, and includes a case where the lid has a portion that can be partially opened, such as an insertion port 16, as will be described later.

[0026] 13A, the portion outside the lid region corresponding portion 95B of the lid body 10 is the outer region corresponding portion 95C, which is the same portion as the bonding region corresponding portion 95A or a portion including the bonding region R. In the example of FIG. 1, the outer region corresponding portion 95C is made up of the outer edge portion 12 and the bonding region corresponding portion 95A.

[0027] (Paper-based substrate) The top surface 11 has a plurality of paper-based substrates 14. The paper-based substrate 14 has a plurality of fibers 15 and is defined as a sheet-like member. The paper-based substrate 14 is defined as a sheet-like member using a paper-based material. In other words, it is preferable that the paper-based substrate 14 is made of a paper-based material. In the example of FIG. 1A, it is preferable that the entire top surface 11 is made of the paper-based substrate 14 (i.e., the entire lid body 10 is formed of the paper-based substrate 14).

[0028] (Paper-based materials) Examples of paper-based materials include so-called paper, which is obtained by weaving a slurry of a fiber-containing raw material onto a screen, drying or pressing and drying it, and making it into a sheet; so-called air-laid sheets, which are obtained by stacking opened fiber raw materials such as pulverized pulp obtained by pulverizing a raw material sheet made of pulp-based fibers or the like in a grinder, using an air flow to fix the fibers in the stack to each other with a binder; and so-called papers, which are produced by agglutinating plant fibers and other fibers.

[0029] The fibers 15 forming the paper substrate 14 (i.e., the fibers forming the paper material) are preferably so-called paper fibers (pulp fibers). Examples of pulp fibers include wood pulp fibers and non-wood pulp fibers. For both wood pulp and non-wood pulp, virgin pulp is preferred from the viewpoint of maintaining a relatively long fiber length. Furthermore, among wood pulps, unbleached kraft pulp (UKP), bleached kraft pulp (BKP), or a combination thereof is preferred for the pulp fibers, as these wood pulps produce base paper with excellent wet strength. Unbleached pulp refers to wood pulp that has not been bleached. Bleached pulp refers to wood pulp that has undergone a bleaching process. Examples of bleaching methods for bleached pulp include bleaching methods using alkali, chlorine, sodium hypochlorite, etc., bleaching methods using chlorine dioxide, etc. (ECF (Elementary Chlorine Free) bleaching method), bleaching methods using oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, ozone, etc. (TCF (Total Chlorine Free) bleaching method), etc. Examples of non-wood pulp include linter pulp, kenaf pulp, bagasse pulp, pambu pulp, and hemp pulp.

[0030] Examples of pulp include wood pulp, non-wood pulp, synthetic pulp, and recycled paper pulp. More specifically, mechanical pulp (MP) such as groundwood pulp (GP), stone ground pulp (SGP), refiner ground pulp (RGP), pressure groundwood pulp (PGW), thermomechanical pulp (TMP), chemi-thermomechanical pulp (CTMP), and bleached chemi-thermomechanical pulp (BCTMP), chemical-mechanical pulp (CGP), semi-chemical pulp (SCP), bleached hardwood kraft pulp (LBKP), and bleached softwood kraft pulp (LBKP) are also included. One or several types of pulp can be appropriately selected and used from among kraft pulp (KP) such as NBKP; chemical pulp (CP) such as soda pulp (AP), sulfite pulp (SP) and dissolving pulp (DP); synthetic pulp made from nylon, rayon, polyester, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and the like; tallow pulp (TP); rag pulp made from cotton, flax, hemp, jute, Manila hemp, ramie and the like; stalk pulp such as straw pulp, esparto pulp, bagasse pulp, bamboo pulp and kenaf pulp; and auxiliary pulp such as bast pulp. The pulp can be softwood pulp such as red pine, todomatsu, Yezo pine, Douglas fir, hemlock, spruce, etc.; hardwood pulp such as beech, oak, birch, eucalyptus, poplar, alder, etc.; wood pulp such as a mixture of softwood pulp and hardwood pulp; non-wood pulp such as kenaf bagasse pulp, bamboo pulp, cereal pulp, straw pulp, abaca pulp, cotton pulp; recycled paper pulp, etc. Softwood pulp has longer fibers than hardwood pulp, so paper materials using pulp with long fiber length such as softwood pulp have a higher degree of entanglement of the fibers; and pulp obtained by pulverizing a raw material sheet using softwood pulp, etc., also has longer fibers than pulverized pulp obtained by pulverizing a raw material sheet made of hardwood pulp, so that the entanglement of the fibers improves the strength of the paper material.

[0031] Furthermore, the paper material may have a resin coating layer on at least one side. When using a paper material having a coating layer, it is preferable to use it so that the coating layer is positioned at least on the inner surface side of the container. The coating layer can be formed by a resin film or a coating layer. When forming the coating layer by adhering a resin film, the film may be a single-layer film or a multi-layer film, and may be formed by overlapping single-layer or multi-layer films. Furthermore, the coating layer may be formed by applying not only one type of coating agent, but also two or more types of coating agents applied in overlapping layers.

[0032] Paper-based materials may be made solely of pulp or may contain non-pulp natural fibers, synthetic fibers, recycled fibers, or other fibers, but preferably contain pulp as the main component (50% by mass or more), more preferably 70% by mass or more, and even more preferably 80% by mass or more, with 100% by mass of pulp being particularly preferred. Paper-based materials can also be used as composite materials with wood-based materials such as wood foil, or even aluminum foil, but when used as composite materials, the composite material as a whole preferably contains 50% by mass or more of pulp, and particularly preferably contains 80% by mass or more of pulp. The higher the pulp content, the more easily the paper-based material is biodegraded, which is preferable.

[0033] Paper-based materials are sheet materials made from fibers, and are preferably used in which the formation of a layer of a coating agent or the like (coat layer) on the entire surface of the sheet material is avoided. Avoiding the formation of a coating layer that covers the entire surface of the sheet material allows for the formation of a lid that is more suitable for recyclability. However, when a coating agent that can be dissolved in a solvent or the like is used, forming a coating layer on the paper-based material is not prohibited. When forming a coating layer on a paper-based material, it is preferable to use the coating layer so that it is positioned at least on the inner surface side of the container. The coating layer can be formed using a resin film or a coating layer. When forming the coating layer by adhering a resin film, the film may be a single-layer film or a multi-layer film, or single-layer or multi-layer films may be laminated together. Furthermore, the coating layer may be formed by applying not only one type of coating agent, but also two or more types of coating agents laminated together.

[0034] Examples of resins that form the coating layer include polystyrene, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyurethane, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylidene chloride, polyvinyl acetate, cyanoacrylate, epoxy resin, polyacrylic acid resin, polymethacrylic acid resin, nylon, polycarbonate; polycaprolactone, polyhydroxyalkanoate, polyhydroxybutyrate, polylactic acid, starch-based resins such as esterified starch, cellulose acetate, polyethylene succinate, polyvinyl alcohol, polyglycolic acid, chitosan / cellulose / starch, poly(hydroxybutyrate / hydroxyhexanoate), poly(caprolactone / butylene succinate), polybutylene succinate, poly(butylene succinate / adipate), poly Examples of suitable resins include naturally degradable resins and mixtures of naturally degradable resins such as poly(butylene succinate / carbonate), poly(ethylene terephthalate / succinate), poly(butylene adipate / terephthalate), and poly(tetramethylene adipate / terephthalate); naturally degradable biomass resins and mixtures of naturally degradable biomass resins; fluororesins, silicone resins, ultraviolet-curable resins, copolymers of the monomers that make up the above resins, such as ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymers, ethylene-propylene copolymers, ethylene-propylene-butadiene copolymers, acrylic-styrene copolymers, styrene-butadiene copolymers, and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymers, natural resins, paraffin, gelatin, cellophane, and polymethylpentene. The coating layer is preferably formed from a naturally degradable resin, a naturally degradable biomass resin, or a natural resin, or from these.

[0035] Examples of the naturally degradable resin include natural resins, naturally degradable plastics, biomass plastics, etc. Examples of the naturally degradable plastics and biomass plastics include naturally degradable resins and mixtures of naturally degradable resins such as polycaprolactone, polyhydroxyalkanoate, polyhydroxybutyrate, polylactic acid, starch-based resins such as esterified starch, cellulose acetate, polyethylene succinate, polyvinyl alcohol, polyglycolic acid, chitosan / cellulose / starch, poly(hydroxybutyrate / hydroxyhexanoate), poly(caprolactone / butylene succinate), polybutylene succinate, poly(butylene succinate / adipate), poly(butylene succinate / carbonate), poly(ethylene terephthalate / succinate), poly(butylene adipate / terephthalate), and poly(tetramethylene adipate / terephthalate).

[0036] The naturally degradable resin may also contain additives listed on the positive list of the Japan BioPlastics Association, such as lubricants such as stearic acid amide, fatty acid esters, fatty acid metal salts, fatty acids, fats and oils, and glycerin fatty acid esters; stabilizers such as triphenyl phosphate, phthalic anhydride, tris(dibutyl phosphate), and acetic anhydride; inorganic materials such as titanium dioxide, kaolin, mica, bentonite, diatomaceous earth, magnesium oxide, aluminum silica sand, calcium carbonate, calcium hydroxide, and shell powder; surfactants such as higher fatty acid amides, nonionic surfactants, and glycerin fatty acid esters; blowing agents such as citric acid, sodium bicarbonate, and butane; and other materials such as antistatic agents and hot melt adhesives.

[0037] Furthermore, "naturally degradable" refers to the property of being decomposed by microorganisms, ultraviolet rays, changes in weather, etc. in the air, soil, or water, thereby reducing the environmental load.

[0038] As described above, the lid 10 may be made of a paper-based material, and the use of a non-paper-based material in combination with the paper-based material is not prohibited. Examples of non-paper-based materials include cloth-based materials (woven or non-woven). Examples of non-woven materials include air-laid sheets formed by bonding pulverized pulp stacked by airflow into a sheet, pulp-based materials, and non-woven fabrics made of natural or synthetic fibers. The lid 10 may also be made of a combination of paper-based and non-paper-based materials. Examples of non-paper-based materials include resins made of synthetic resins, natural resins, and other resin materials. An example of a combination of paper-based and resin-based materials is a lid 10 having a structure in which a resin sheet is laminated on at least one side of a paper-based material. However, as described above, from the perspective of reducing environmental impact, when a paper-based material is used for the lid 10, it is preferable to omit the resin sheet (i.e., to be made of only paper-based material).

[0039] When the lid body 10 is made of a sheet containing a paper-based material, the paper-based sheet forming the lid body 10 is preferably waterproof. For example, in the manufacturing process of such a sheet containing a paper-based material (e.g., specifically, when a process of making raw fibers (e.g., pulp fibers) is performed), predetermined amounts of various additives, such as a lubrication strength enhancer, a sizing agent (e.g., alkyl ketene dimer (AKD)), or cationic starch, are added to the raw fibers of the sheet. In addition to the lubrication strength enhancer and sizing agent, calcium carbonate may also be used as the additive. In this case, various additives, such as a lubrication strength enhancer, sizing agent, cationic starch, or calcium carbonate, may be added to the raw fibers of the sheet. The amounts of these additives are set to an amount sufficient to enhance waterproofness. This allows for a sheet containing a paper-based material with enhanced waterproofness to be obtained. The additives listed above are merely examples, and other additives may be added, or the additives may be replaced with other substances having equivalent functions to those listed above.

[0040] When the lid body 10 is made of a sheet having a paper-based material, the lid body 10 may be made of a sheet made of a paper-based material with a layer formed on the surface thereof by a coating method or the like to enhance waterproofing.

[0041] In the case where the entire lid body 10 and each of the components constituting the lid body 10 are formed from a resin material, examples of the resin material that can be used include polyester (polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polycarbonate (PC), etc.), polyolefin (polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP)), polyamide (nylon-6, nylon-66, etc.), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), polyimide (PI), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyethersulfone (PES), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), ethylene-propylene copolymer (EP), unstretched polypropylene (CPP), biaxially oriented nylon (ON), ethylene-olefin copolymer, ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer (EAA), ethylene-methacrylic acid copolymer (EMAA), and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA).

[0042] The resin material constituting the lid 10 is preferably one or more materials selected from olefin-based resins, biomass-based resins, and biodegradable resins. Examples of unstretched olefin-based resins include propylene-based resins. Examples of propylene-based resins include propylene homopolymers, propylene-α-olefin random copolymers, and propylene-α-olefin block copolymers. Examples of polyethylene resins include polyethylene resins such as linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), linear medium-density polyethylene (LMDPE), linear high-density polyethylene (LHDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), medium-density polyethylene (MDPE), and high-density polyethylene (HDPE); ethylene copolymers such as ethylene-butene-rubber copolymer (EBR), ethylene-propylene-rubber copolymer (EPR), ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), ethylene-methyl methacrylate copolymer (EMMA), ethylene-ethyl acrylate copolymer (EEA), ethylene-methyl acrylate (EMA) copolymer, ethylene-ethyl acrylate-maleic anhydride copolymer (E-EA-MAH), ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer (EAA), and ethylene-methacrylic acid copolymer (EMAA); and ionomers of ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer and ionomers of ethylene-methacrylic acid copolymer. These may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0043] Examples of biomass-based resins include plant-derived biomass polyethylene. Examples of plant-derived biomass polyethylene include polyethylene resins produced from plant-derived ethylene, such as sugarcane, corn, and beets. Examples of biomass polyethylene include linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), linear medium-density polyethylene (LMDPE), linear high-density polyethylene (LHDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), medium-density polyethylene (MDPE), and high-density polyethylene (HDPE). These may be used alone or in combination. Other examples include tall oil, a by-product of pulp production, and biomass polypropylene and biomass polyethylene made from waste cooking oil.

[0044] Examples of biodegradable resins include polyethylene succinate (PES), polybutylene succinate (PBS), polylactic acid (PLA), polyglycolic acid (PGA), polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), polycaprolactone (PCL), a mixture or copolymer of polycaprolactone and polybutylene succinate (PCL / PBS), a copolymer of polyhydroxybutyrate and polyhydroxyvalerate (PHB / PHV), a mixture or copolymer of polybutylene succinate and polybutylene adipate (PBS / PBA), a copolymer of polyethylene terephthalate and polyethylene succinate (PET / PES), a copolymer of polybutylene terephthalate and polybutylene adipate (PBT / PBA), etc. These resin materials may be used alone or in combination.

[0045] Although the paper-based material is preferably made of a fiber material such as pulp, this does not prohibit the inclusion of various resins in addition to the fiber material, as long as they are not the main component. However, when the paper-based material contains various resins, it is preferable to select biodegradable resins that cause less environmental pollution. Examples of biodegradable resins include microbially produced biodegradable resins such as polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) and PHA-based copolymers; natural product-based biodegradable resins such as cellulose derivatives such as cellulose acetate and starch-based resins made primarily from starch such as corn starch; lactic acid-based resins such as polylactic acid (PLA), polylactic acid / polycaprolactone copolymers, and polylactic acid / polyether copolymers; succinate-based resins such as polybutylene succinate (PBS), polybutylene succinate adipate (PBSA), and polyethylene terephthalate succinate (PETS); chemically synthesized biodegradable resins such as polycaprolactone and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA); and other biodegradable resins such as polyglycolic acid (PGA), polybutylene adipate / terephthalate, and biodegradable polyolefins (product name: Biorecover, trade name: Cra Drop, etc.).

[0046] In addition to fibrous materials such as pulp, additives may be added to the paper-based material as needed. Examples of additives include various compounds such as paper strength agents, fillers, and sizing agents. Specific examples of additives that may be added to the paper-based material include starch-based compounds and alkyl ketene dimers (AKDs). The starch-based compounds used are preferably those that can function as paper strength agents. The alkyl ketene dimers are preferably those that can function as sizing agents. From the perspective of reducing environmental impact, when a resin is used as an additive, it is preferably a non-synthetic resin, and for example, a biodegradable resin is preferably used.

[0047] (Intertwined Structure) The paper-based substrate 14 has a structure in which a plurality of fibers 15 are crossed to form a gas passage path connecting the opposing surface 73 to the exposed surface 72 (a structure in which a plurality of fibers 15 are crossed is referred to as an intertwined structure). That is, the paper-based substrate 14 has an intertwined structure. The paper-based substrate 14 is defined as having breathability without requiring a separate process for forming perforations or slits for ventilation (a perforation forming process) on a sheet formed from a paper-based material. Such a paper-based substrate 14 can be realized by employing a sheet (with increased thickness) formed using a paper-based material with reduced fiber basis weight and bulky. By reducing the fiber basis weight and making the paper-based substrate 14 bulky, the fiber density is reduced, making it easier for gaps to form between the entangled fibers overall. In the paper-based material, the gaps between the fibers 15 tend to be connected in the thickness direction of the paper-based substrate 14, and as shown in Figure 3C, a state in which a passage is formed through which gas can pass in the direction of arrows FG from one side to the other side of the paper-based substrate 14 is easily formed. By using such a paper-based substrate 14, it is possible to form the above-mentioned "state in which a gas passage path connecting from the opposing surface to the exposed surface is formed in the paper-based substrate 14."

[0048] In the paper-based substrate 14, the gas passage paths may be formed over the entire area of ​​the paper-based substrate 14, or may be formed only in specific areas. Furthermore, in the paper-based substrate 14, the areas where the gas passage paths are formed may be formed in a predetermined layout.

[0049] (Air Permeability) The paper-based substrate 14 has air permeability because it has a gas passage path. The air permeability of the paper-based substrate 14 can be specifically determined by, for example, air permeability. Air permeability is calculated by the average flow rate ([mL / (m ２ *Pa*s)], i.e., [μm / (Pa*s)]. The air permeability can be measured, for example, by a method conforming to JIS P 8117. The magnitude of the air permeability of the paper-based substrate 14 can be determined based on a comparison of the magnitude of the air permeability values.

[0050] (Overlap structure) The top surface 11 has an overlap structure 17 in which multiple paper-based substrates 14 are stacked. In the examples of Figures 1A to 1C, the entire top surface 11 forms the overlap structure 17. However, this does not limit the overlap structure 17 to only the lid region corresponding portion 95B. It is sufficient that at least the lid region corresponding portion 95B forms the overlap structure 17. However, from the viewpoint of improving the uniformity of the overall thickness of the top surface 11 of the lid body 10 and thereby improving the uniformity of the strength of the lid body 10, it is preferable that the entire top surface 11 forms the overlap structure 17.

[0051] In the example of FIG. 1C , the overlapping structure 17 is defined as a structure in which two paper-based substrates 14 are stacked. The paper-based substrate 14 located closest to the opening 102 of the container 101 is referred to as the first paper-based substrate 14A, and the paper-based substrate 14 directly facing the first paper-based substrate 14A is referred to as the second paper-based substrate 14B. When the first paper-based substrate 14A and the second paper-based substrate 14B are not particularly distinguished from each other, they are collectively referred to as the paper-based substrate 14. Note that the example of FIG. 1C illustrates an example of the present invention, and the number of paper-based substrates 14 is not limited to two, as long as the overlapping structure 17 is a structure in which multiple paper-based substrates 14 are stacked. As shown in FIG. 4A , the overlapping structure 17 may be a structure in which three or more paper-based substrates 14 are stacked. However, from the viewpoint of reducing manufacturing costs and easily ensuring the size of the gaps between the paper-based substrates 14, it is preferable that the overlapping structure 17 be a structure in which two paper-based substrates 14 are stacked.

[0052] (Basis Weight) The basis weight of each of the paper-based substrates 14 constituting the overlapping structure 17 is not particularly limited, but the basis weight (g / m ２ ) is the basis weight (g / m) of the second paper-based substrate 14B. ２) is preferably smaller than the first paper-based substrate 14A. When the basis weight of the first paper-based substrate 14A is smaller than the basis weight of the second paper-based substrate 14B, the flexibility of the first paper-based substrate 14A is more likely to be higher than the flexibility of the second paper-based substrate 14B. In other words, the rigidity of the second paper-based substrate 14B is more likely to be higher than the rigidity of the first paper-based substrate 14A. Therefore, when the contents of the lidded container 150 are a gas-releasing fluid such as a hot liquid or a carbonated drink, even if gas such as steam released from the contents accumulates in the gap 18 between the second paper-based substrate 14B and the first paper-based substrate 14A while the lidded container 150 is in its state, deformation of the second paper-based substrate 14B is more likely to be suppressed than that of the first paper-based substrate 14A, and the external shape stability of the lidded container 150 can be improved.

[0053] (Thickness) The thicknesses of the paper-based substrates 14 constituting the superposed structure 17 may be the same, or the thicknesses of at least some of the paper-based substrates 14 may be different, or the thicknesses of the paper-based substrates 14 may be different from each other. For example, when the superposed structure 17 is formed by stacking three paper-based substrates 14, the thicknesses of the three paper-based substrates 14 may be the same, or the thicknesses of two paper-based substrates 14 may be the same but different from the thickness of the other one of the paper-based substrates 14, or the thicknesses of the three paper-based substrates 14 may be different from each other.

[0054] 4B , in the overlap structure 17, the thickness of the first paper-based substrate 14A may be smaller than the thickness of the second paper-based substrate 14B, i.e., the thickness of the second paper-based substrate 14B may be greater than the thickness of the first paper-based substrate 14A. In this case, similar to the basis weight described above, the external shape stability of the lidded container 150 can be improved.

[0055] (Density) The densities of the paper-based substrates 14 constituting the superposed structure 17 may be the same, or the densities of at least some of the paper-based substrates 14 may be different, or the densities of the paper-based substrates 14 may be different from each other. For example, when the superposed structure 17 is formed by stacking three paper-based substrates 14, the densities of the three paper-based substrates 14 may be the same, or the densities of two paper-based substrates 14 may be the same and different from the density of another paper-based substrate 14, or the densities of the three paper-based substrates 14 may be different from each other.

[0056] Regarding the density of the paper-based substrate 14, when comparing the density of a paper-based substrate placed relatively close to the container 101 with the density of a paper-based substrate placed relatively far from the container 101, it is preferable that the density of the paper-based substrate placed relatively close to the container 101 is higher, from the viewpoint of balancing between temporarily trapping gas released from the gas-releasing fluid through the lid body 10 and maintaining the function of the lid body 10 covering the container 101.

[0057] 1, the density of the fibers constituting the first paper-based substrate 14A is preferably greater than the density of the fibers constituting the second paper-based substrate 14B. In such a case, the size of the gas passage path of the second paper-based substrate 14B (the size of the spaces 19 (gaps between the fibers 15) between the plurality of fibers 15 constituting the second paper-based substrate 14B) tends to be greater than the size of the gas passage path of the first paper-based substrate 14A (the size of the spaces 19 (gaps between the fibers 15) between the plurality of fibers 15 constituting the second paper-based substrate 14B), making it easier to make the breathability of the second paper-based substrate 14B greater than that of the first paper-based substrate 14A. Furthermore, by making the breathability of the second paper-based substrate 14B greater than that of the first paper-based substrate 14A, gas released from the gas-releasing fluid contained in the container 101 of the lidded container 150 is more likely to be temporarily trapped in the gaps between the multiple paper-based substrates 14 that make up the overlapping structure 17 (in the examples of Figures 1C and 2, in the gaps 18 between the second paper-based substrate 14B and the first paper-based substrate 14A). In other words, the time for which gas is trapped in the gaps 18 formed between the multiple paper-based substrates 14 can be controlled. The gas released from the gas-releasing fluid passes through the first paper-based substrate 14A and enters the gaps 18. At this time, the gas is less likely to pass through the paper-based material through the first paper-based substrate 14A than through the second paper-based substrate 14B. However, because the second paper-based substrate 14B covers the opening 102, the gas sent to the gaps 18 of the paper-based substrates 14 that make up the overlapping structure 17 is unlikely to immediately diffuse to the outside of the lid 10, and the second paper-based substrate 14B prevents the gas from freely diffusing. That is, the gas is temporarily trapped in the gaps 18 of the paper-based substrates 14 that make up the overlapping structure 17. Then, depending on the breathability of the second paper-based substrate 14B, the gas gradually flows out of the gaps 18. Therefore, as described above, the time that the gas is trapped in the gaps 18 can be controlled.

[0058] In this way, because the density of the fibers 15 constituting the first paper-based substrate 14A is greater than the density of the fibers 15 constituting the second paper-based substrate 14B, gas is temporarily trapped in the gaps 18 of the paper-based substrates 14 constituting the overlapping structure 17, and the gas is released to the outside of the lidded container 150. This prevents damage to the lidded container 150 (damage due to an excessive increase in internal pressure), and allows gas released from the gas-releasing fluid contained in the container 101 of the lidded container 150 to be appropriately retained inside the lidded container 150. Furthermore, because gas is trapped in the gaps 18 of the paper-based substrates 14 constituting the overlapping structure 17, the gas filling the gaps 18 can respond to the temperature of the contents of the lidded container 150 while improving the thermal insulation of the lid 10 itself. For example, if the contents are a carbonated beverage that is colder than room temperature, the temperature of the gas released from the cold carbonated beverage is also low, and the temperature of the gas trapped in the gaps 18 of the paper-based substrate 14 that constitutes the overlapping structure 17 is also low, making it possible to improve the thermal insulation while keeping the temperature of the lid 10 itself lower than room temperature. Also, if the contents are hot coffee or the like, the temperature of the steam generated from the coffee or the like is high, and the temperature of the steam trapped in the gaps 18 of the paper-based substrate 14 that constitutes the overlapping structure 17 is high, making it possible to improve the thermal insulation while keeping the temperature of the lid 10 elevated. Note that while the examples in Figures 1C and 2 show cases where two paper-based fibers constitute the overlapping structure 17, the same applies (and the same effect is obtained) when three or more paper-based substrates constitute the overlapping structure 17. That is, even when there are three or more paper-based substrates 14 that make up the overlapping structure 17 as shown in FIG. 4A , it is preferable that the density of the fibers 15 that make up the paper-based substrate 14 that is closer to the container 101 (the paper-based substrate 14 that is relatively closer to the opposing surface 73) is greater than the density of the fibers 15 that make up the paper-based substrate 14 that is farther from the container 101 (the paper-based substrate 14 that is relatively closer to the exposed surface 72).

[0059] (Partial Adhesion) The overlapping structure 17 has a partial adhesion 20 formed by partially adhering at least two paper-based substrates 14. The partial adhesion 20 is not particularly limited as long as it is configured to partially adhere two directly opposing paper-based substrates. However, it is preferably formed so as to prevent leakage of gas or mixed fluid from the gap 18 between the two directly opposing paper-based substrates 14 along the surface direction of the lid 10 to the outside of the overlapping structure 17. In the examples of FIGS. 1A , 1B , and 1C , the partial adhesion is formed in a ring shape at a portion that combines the outer region corresponding portion 95C, which includes a portion corresponding to the bonding region corresponding portion 95A, and a predetermined portion near the outer periphery of the lid region corresponding portion 95B. That is, the partial adhesion 20 is formed from the outer edge portion 12 of the lid 10 toward the inside, up to a position that extends inside the lid region corresponding portion 95B. Furthermore, in this example, leakage of gas or mixed fluid that has entered gap 18 from gap 18 surrounded by partial adhesive portion 20 along the surface direction of lid 10 to the outside of overlapping structure 17 is restricted. Note that in FIG. 1B , the region where partial adhesive portion 20 is formed is shown as a hatched region. This also applies to FIGS. 5B , 6B , 10B , and 11B .

[0060] The partial adhesive portion 20 is not particularly limited as long as it is configured to partially adhere the paper substrates 14, but is preferably a portion where at least two paper substrates 14 are adhered via an adhesive 21. Examples of the adhesive 21 include an acrylic adhesive. The partial adhesive portion 20 may also be formed by previously disposing a thermoplastic resin such as a polyethylene resin on the paper substrates 14, stacking the paper substrates 14 so that the thermoplastic resin is sandwiched between them, and then heating and pressurizing the paper substrates 14 to adhere them via the thermoplastic resin. In this case, the thermoplastic resin functions as the adhesive 21. Examples of methods for previously disposing a thermoplastic resin such as a polyethylene resin on the paper substrate 14 include a method of applying a thermoplastic resin to the paper substrate 14.

[0061] [1-2 Actions and Effects] When the lid and container 101 are bonded by a method of joining the lid to the edge 103 that forms the outer periphery of the opening 102 at the top of the container 101 using a method such as heat pressing (i.e., a sealing method (sometimes referred to as a heat sealing method)), and when the content of the container 101 is a gas-releasing fluid, the internal pressure inside the container 101 is likely to increase, and therefore it is necessary to prevent the lid from bursting or the lid from separating from the container 101 at a timing not intended by the user. Preventing the lid from bursting or the lid from separating from the container at a timing not intended by the user is also important from the perspective of preventing liquid components that leak out of the container 101 while mixed with the gas from coming into contact with the user's body.

[0062] In the lid 10 according to the first embodiment, the top surface 11 of the lid 10 has a stacked structure 17 formed of multiple paper-based substrates 14, each of which has a gas ventilation path. As shown in FIG. 3C , gas contained in the mixed fluid flowing toward the opposing surface 73 passes through the gas passage path formed by the spaces 19 between the multiple fibers 15 in the direction of arrow FL from the opposing surface 73 to the exposed surface 72, while at least a portion of the liquid is prevented from advancing by the entangled structure of the fibers 15 and falls off in the direction of arrow FG. Thus, with the lid 10, even if an increase in internal pressure occurs within the container 101, gas can be appropriately dissipated from within the container 101 to the outside. Therefore, a lid 10 made of a paper-based material can be obtained that can prevent the lid 10 from bursting or the container 101 from separating from the lid 10 when the internal pressure within the lid-equipped container 150 increases while the lid-equipped container 150 is in the lid-equipped container state.

[0063] Because the paper-based substrates 14 constituting the lid 10 form gaps 18 where multiple paper-based substrates 14 are stacked, gas released from the gas-releasing fluid contained in the container 101 of the lid-equipped container 150 can be more easily retained inside the lid-equipped container 150 (it can be more easily trapped in the gaps 18), making it difficult for more gas to be released than necessary from the lid-equipped container 150. This also improves the thermal insulation of the lid 10 itself. Furthermore, because the density of the fibers 15 constituting the paper-based substrate 14 farther from the container 101 is greater than the density of the fibers 15 constituting the paper-based substrate 14 closer to the container 101, trapping of gas in the gaps 18 of the paper-based substrates 14 constituting the stacked structure 17 can be temporary.

[0064] [1-3 Modifications] (Modification 1) As shown in FIGS. 5A, 5B, and 5C, the cover 10 according to the first embodiment may have a structure formed in the paper-based substrate 14 that can serve as an insertion port 16. This configuration is referred to as Modification 1 of the first embodiment. In Modification 1 of the first embodiment, the structure that can serve as the insertion port 16 may be a half-cut structure in which the paper-based substrate 14 is cut to a predetermined depth, or a through-hole 22. In Modification 1 of the first embodiment shown in the example of FIG. 5, the through-hole 22 is formed in a portion of the paper-based substrate 14 that constitutes the overlapping structure 17. Furthermore, the through-hole 22 is formed in the second paper-based substrate 14B, and the formation of the through-hole 22 is omitted in the first paper-based substrate 14A. However, this does not limit the formation of the through-hole 22 in all of the paper-based substrates 14 that constitute the overlapping structure 17. However, from the viewpoint of enhancing the effect of trapping gas in the gaps 18 between the multiple paper-based substrates 14 in the overlapping structure 17, it is preferable that the through-holes 22 are formed only in some of the paper-based substrates 14 that make up the overlapping structure 17. That is, as shown in the examples of Figures 5A, 5B, and 5C, it is preferable that the formation of the through-holes 22 is omitted from some of the paper-based substrates 14. When the through-holes 22 are formed in the second paper-based substrate 14B and the formation of the through-holes 22 is omitted in the first paper-based substrate 14A, the position where a straw or the like is inserted can be identified from the outside.

[0065] The through-hole 22 forms a structural portion that functions as the insertion port 16 by inserting a straw or the like from the outside into the container 150 with the lid 10 adhered to the container 101. Therefore, the size of the through-hole 22 is formed to allow the insertion of a straw or the like.

[0066] The through-hole 22 is a portion that penetrates the paper-based substrate 14 in the thickness direction of the paper-based substrate 14, i.e., has a structure (a structure that is penetrated) that is cut in the vertical direction (the thickness direction of the top surface 11) from one side of the lid 10 to the other side (from the exposed surface 72 to the opposing surface 73), and is a so-called cut structure forming portion. The cut structure forming portion is a portion that is formed in a slit shape. The shape of the through-hole 22 is not particularly limited, and in the example of FIG. 1, it is formed in a cross shape, but this is just an example and does not limit the shape of the through-hole 22. The shape of the through-hole 22 may be a C-shape, a U-shape, or any other shape.

[0067] The shape of the through-hole 22 is not limited to the slit shape described above. The through-hole 22 may be formed in a ring shape. In this case, the through-hole 22 may be a hole portion formed by expanding the paper-based substrate 14 (a member forming the top surface 11) or a portion formed by punching the paper-based substrate 14.

[0068] As described above, the through-holes 22 are cut structure forming portions, and therefore, the cut surfaces of the fibers 15 that make up the paper-based substrate 14 are exposed on the inner peripheral surfaces of the through-holes 22 .

[0069] (Variation 2) As shown in FIGS. 6A, 6B, and 6C, the lid 10 according to the first embodiment may have a grip portion 23 formed as an outward extension of a portion of the outer peripheral edge of the outer edge portion 12. This configuration is referred to as Variation 2 of the first embodiment. When a user attempts to remove or consume the contents contained inside the container 101, it may be necessary to forcibly separate the lid and the container. According to Variation 2 of the first embodiment, the user can separate the container and the lid by lifting the lid by holding the grip portion 23 as needed. When the overlapping structure 17 is also formed on the grip portion 23, the partial adhesive portion 20 may also be formed on the grip portion 23. However, this does not prohibit the partial adhesive portion 20 from being formed on the grip portion 23. In the example of FIG. 6, the overlapping structure 17 is also formed on the grip portion 23, but this is merely an example. That is, a part of the paper-based substrate 14 may form a portion corresponding to the gripping portion 23, and the formation of the portion corresponding to the gripping portion 23 may be omitted for the other part of the paper-based substrate 14.

[0070] (Variation 3) In the lid 10 according to the first embodiment, the sizes and shapes of the multiple paper-based substrates 14 forming the overlapping structure 17 are not limited to being the same, and may be different. This form is referred to as Variation 3 of the first embodiment. For example, as shown in the example of Figures 7A and 7B, when the paper-based substrates 14 forming the overlapping structure 17 are a first paper-based substrate 14A and a second paper-based substrate 14B, the second paper-based substrate 14B may be larger in size than the first paper-based substrate 14A. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 7C, the second paper-based substrate 14B may be smaller in size than the first paper-based substrate 14A.

[0071] In the example shown in Figures 8A and 8B, when the paper-based substrates 14 constituting the superimposed structure 17 are a first paper-based substrate 14A and a second paper-based substrate 14B, the shapes of the first paper-based substrate 14A and the second paper-based substrate 14B may be different from each other, with the first paper-based substrate 14A being rectangular and the second paper-based substrate 14B being non-rectangular (approximately circular in the example of Figure 8).

[0072] (Variation 4) In the lid 10 according to the first embodiment, a liquid repellent agent may be applied to the paper-based substrates 14 that form the overlapping structure 17. This form is referred to as Variation 4 of the first embodiment. In Variation 4 of the first embodiment, when the paper-based substrates 14 that form the overlapping structure 17 are the first paper-based substrate 14A and the second paper-based substrate 14B, the liquid repellent agent 44 is disposed at least on the surface of the first paper-based substrate 14A that faces the opposing surface 73.

[0073] 9A , the structure in which the liquid repellent agent 44 is disposed on the paper-based substrate 14 refers to a structure in which the liquid repellent agent 44 is in contact with the fibers 15 that form the paper-based substrate 14. At least a portion of the liquid repellent agent 44 is adhered to at least a portion of the fibers 15.

[0074] The liquid repellent agent 44 is not limited to being disposed on the surface of the paper substrate 14 or on the fibers 15 located near the surface. It may also be disposed inside the paper substrate 14 (at a position inside the surface along the thickness direction of the paper substrate 14). In this case, even if a portion of the liquid contained in the mixed fluid penetrates slightly inside the paper substrate, the passage of the liquid can be restricted. As shown in FIG. 3C , the gas contained in the mixed fluid toward the facing surface 73 passes through the gas passage path formed by the spaces 19 formed between the multiple fibers 15 in the direction of arrow FL from the facing surface 73 side to the exposed surface 72 side. However, at least a portion of the liquid is blocked by the fibers 15 to which the liquid repellent agent 44 is attached, and is likely to fall off in the direction of arrow FG.

[0075] The liquid repellent agent 44 may be attached to the fibers 15 to an extent that it can maintain close contact with the fibers 15. In the example of Fig. 9A, the liquid repellent agent 44 is attached in granular form to the surface of the fibers 15, but as shown in Figs. 9B and 9C, the liquid repellent agent 44 may be attached so as to spread in the planar direction of the surface of the fibers 15, or so as to form a layer of the liquid repellent agent 44 that covers the surface of the fibers 15. Furthermore, the liquid repellent agent 44 may penetrate not only the surface of the fibers 15 but also the interior of the fibers 15 (not shown).

[0076] (Type of Liquid Repellent Agent) The liquid repellent agent 44 is preferably determined according to the type of liquid contained in the container 101 in the state of the lidded container 150. When the liquid contained contains water, a water repellent agent is preferably used as the liquid repellent agent 44. The water repellent agent is not particularly limited, but may be a fluorine-based water repellent agent, a silicone-based water repellent agent, wax, or the like.

[0077] (Method of applying water-repellent agent as liquid-repellent agent) An example of a method of applying the liquid-repellent agent 44 is a method of applying a water-repellent treatment to the paper-based substrate 14. The method of the water-repellent treatment is not particularly limited, and an example of the method of applying the water-repellent treatment is a method of immersing the paper-based substrate 14 in a treatment liquid, pulling up the immersed paper-based substrate, and then drying it. Another example of the water-repellent treatment is a method of applying a treatment liquid to the surface of the paper-based substrate. Specific examples of the application method include printing methods. Examples of printing methods include coating methods such as roll coating and spray coating, gravure printing, and screen printing. When using a method of applying water-repellent treatment, the liquid-repellent agent 44 is a water-repellent agent.

[0078] (Variation 4) In the lid body 10 according to the first embodiment, a resin may be attached to at least one surface of the paper-based substrates 14 forming the overlapping structure 17, except for the paper-based substrate 14 arranged closest to the opposing surface 73 (Variation 4). In the lid body 10 according to Variation 4 of the first embodiment, the resin attached to the surface of the paper-based substrate 14 may form a layer, or the resin may be arranged so that the resin-attached areas are dispersedly formed on the surface of the paper-based substrate 14. When the resin attached to the surface of the paper-based substrate 14 forms a layer, the layer may be formed by coating the resin, or a film material made of resin may be attached to a sheet material made of fibers that constitutes the paper-based substrate 14. For example, when the overlapping structure 17 is a structure in which a first paper-based substrate 14A and a second paper-based substrate 14B are laminated as shown in FIG. 1, the second paper-based substrate 14B may have a resin attached thereto. In this case, the resin may be attached to either the surface of the second paper-based substrate 14B facing the exposed surface 72 or the surface facing the opposing surface 73, but it is preferable that the resin be attached to the opposing surface 73, as this also serves as an adhesive for bonding the first paper-based substrate 14A and the second paper-based substrate 14B. Examples of resins include polyethylene-based resins.

[0079] 10A, 10B, and 10C, the lid 10 according to the second embodiment has an overlapping structure 17, and a plurality of small through holes 30 are formed in the paper-based substrate 14 that is arranged closest to the exposed surface 72 of the paper-based substrates 14 that form the overlapping structure 17. The lid 10 according to the second embodiment has the same configuration as the first embodiment except for the configuration in which the small through holes 30 are formed. Modifications 1 to 4 of the first embodiment may also be applied to the second embodiment.

[0080] 10A, 10B, and 10C, the overlapping structure 17 has a structure in which a first paper-based substrate 14A and a second paper-based substrate 14B are overlapped. A small through hole 30 is formed in the second paper-based substrate 14B, which is disposed relatively closer to the exposed surface 72 in the top surface 11 of the lid 10. As shown in FIG. 2B, the overlapping structure 17 has a gap 18 formed between the first paper-based substrate 14A and the second paper-based substrate 14B.

[0081] (Small Through Portion) The small through portion 30 is smaller than the through portion described in Variation 1 of the first embodiment. The small through portion 30 is formed in a portion of the top surface 11 corresponding to the lid region corresponding portion 95B. From the viewpoint of preventing leakage of the contents of the container 101 from the lid-equipped container 150, it is preferable that the small through portion 30 be avoided from being formed in a position outside the overlapping structure 17. The shape of the small through portion 30 may be hole-shaped or slit-shaped. If hole-shaped, it may be a round hole or an elongated hole. In the example of FIG. 10A , the small through portion 30 is formed in a slit shape, and many small through portions 30 are formed in the lid region corresponding portion 95B, so that the area where the group of small through portions 30 is formed is donut-shaped. However, this is just an example, and the shape of the area where the group of small through portions 30 is formed is not particularly limited.

[0082] In the example of the cover 10 according to the second embodiment shown in Fig. 10A, a penetration portion 22 is further formed in the small penetration portion 30. The penetration portion 22 is formed to a size that allows the formation of the insertion port 16, as described in Modification 1 of the first embodiment. However, the example in Fig. 10A is just one example, and the formation of the insertion port 16 may be omitted.

[0083] Examples of methods for forming the small through-holes 30 include a method of forming by cutting the paper-based substrate 14, a method of forming by punching the paper-based substrate 14, and a method of forming by subjecting the paper-based substrate 14 to corona discharge treatment.

[0084] [2-2 Actions and Effects] According to the lid 10 of the second embodiment, the same effects as those of the first embodiment can be obtained.

[0085] [2-3 Modifications] (Modification 1) According to the lid 10 of the second embodiment, the edge portion of the small through portion 30 may have a portion that extends toward the opposing surface 73 (Modification 1). The lid 10 of Modification 1 of the second embodiment can be realized by making an incision by inserting a breaking blade from the exposed surface 72 side toward the opposing surface 73 side of a blank material used to form the lid 10, and the incision formed therein serves as the small through portion 30. In other words, when an incision is made by inserting a breaking blade from the exposed surface 72 side toward the opposing surface 73 side, a burr is generated toward the opposing surface 73 side, and this burr (burr portion) forms an edge portion of the small through portion 30 that extends toward the opposing surface 73 side.

[0086] According to the cover body 10 of the first modified example of the second embodiment, the portion of the edge of the small penetration portion 30 extending toward the opposing surface 73 can function as a spacer to maintain the gap 18 between the second paper-based substrate 14B and the first paper-based substrate 14A.

[0087] (Variation 2) According to the lid 10 of the second embodiment, the edge portion of the small through hole 30 may have a portion that extends toward the exposed surface 72 (Variation 2). The lid 10 of Variation 2 of the second embodiment can be realized by making an incision by inserting a breaking blade from the opposing surface 73 side toward the exposed surface 72 side of a blank material used to form the lid 10, and the incision formed therein serves as the small through hole 30. In other words, when an incision is made by inserting a breaking blade from the opposing surface 73 side toward the exposed surface 72 side, a burr is generated toward the opposing surface 73 side, and this burr (burr portion) forms an edge portion of the small through hole 30 that extends toward the opposing surface 73 side.

[0088] According to the cover body 10 of the second embodiment, the portion of the edge of the small penetration portion 30 that extends toward the opposing surface 73 can function as a guide path for guiding gas that has reached the gap 18 between the second paper-based substrate 14B and the first paper-based substrate 14A to the outside.

[0089] 11A, 11B, and 11C, the lid 10 according to the third embodiment has an overlapping structure 17, and a plurality of small through holes 30 are formed in the paper-based substrates 14 other than the paper-based substrate 14 that forms the overlapping structure 17 and that is arranged closest to the exposed surface 72. The lid 10 according to the third embodiment has the same configuration as the first and second embodiments, except for the configuration in which the small through holes 30 are formed. Furthermore, variations 1 to 4 of the first embodiment may also be applied to the third embodiment, as in the second embodiment.

[0090] In the example of Fig. 11, the overlapping structure 17 has a structure in which a first paper-based substrate 14A and a second paper-based substrate 14B are overlapped. A small through hole 30 is formed in the first paper-based substrate 14A on the top surface 11 of the lid 10. As shown in Fig. 2C, the overlapping structure 17 has a gap 18 formed between the first paper-based substrate 14A and the second paper-based substrate 14B.

[0091] (Small Through Portion) The small through portion 30 is similar to the small through portion described in the second embodiment, and therefore a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

[0092] In the lid 10 according to the third embodiment, as described in the second embodiment, a penetration portion 22 may be further formed in the small penetration portion 30, or the penetration portion 22 may be omitted, as shown in FIG. 11A . However, in the lid 10 according to the third embodiment, when the penetration portion 22 is formed, unlike the second embodiment, it is preferable that the paper-based substrate 14 forming the penetration portion 22 is different from the paper-based substrate 14 forming the small penetration portion 30. As described in Modification 1 of the first embodiment, the penetration portion 22 is preferably formed in the second paper-based substrate 14B. The penetration portion 22 is formed to a size that allows the insertion port 16 to be formed. By differentiating the paper-based substrate 14 forming the penetration portion 22 from the paper-based substrate 14 forming the small penetration portion 30, it is easy to maintain the strength of the paper-based substrate 14 forming the overlapping structure 17. Furthermore, by providing the penetration portion 22 in the paper-based substrate 14 closest to the exposed surface 72, the visibility of the insertion port 16 can be improved. Furthermore, when the through-holes 22 are formed, it is preferable that a partial adhesive section 20 is further formed between the area where the small through-holes 30 are formed and the area where the through-holes 22 are formed in a plan view of the lid 10, and that the area where the small through-holes 30 are formed and the area where the through-holes 22 are formed are separated by the further formed partial adhesive section 20. In this case, even if the small through-holes 30 are formed with a size that allows liquid to easily enter the gap 18, it is possible to prevent liquid from leaking out through the small through-holes 30 in the first paper-based substrate 14A and passing through the through-holes 22.

[0093] [3-2 Actions and Effects] According to the lid 10 of the second embodiment, the same effects as those of the first embodiment can be obtained.

[0094] [4. Application Example] When the lids according to the first to third embodiments are used, the lids can be used in a lidded container 150 as shown in FIGS. 12A and 12B. Here, an example will be described in which the lid 10 according to the first embodiment is used in a lidded container 150. FIG. 12A is a diagram showing an example in which the lid 10 according to the first embodiment is attached to an edge 103 that forms the outer periphery of an opening 102 of a container 101 having an opening 102 formed at its upper end. In this example, the lid 10 is bonded to the edge 103. FIG. 12B is a cross-sectional view schematically showing the state of the vertical cross section taken along line H-H in FIG. 12A. The description of the lidded container 150 will continue with reference to FIGS. 12A and 12B.

[0095] (Container with Lid) The container with lid 150 has a contact area 151 where the container 101 and the lid 10 come into contact, and the region of the lid 10 that forms the contact area 151 is the bonding region R. In the container with lid 150, the lid 10 can be attached to the container 101 by adhering it to the container 101 in the bonding region R that forms the contact area 151. Adhesion methods such as ultrasonic welding and heat sealing can be used. The edge 103 of the container 101 often has a resin coating layer 120, which is generally a resin layer. In such cases, the lid 10 and the container 101 can be joined using ultrasonic welding, heat sealing, or other methods without the need for an adhesive material between the lid 10 and the container 101. However, this does not prohibit the contact area 151 where the lid 10 and the container 101 come into contact from being formed by adhering the lid 10 and the container 101 using an adhesive material (e.g., starch glue) between them. In addition, the resin coating layer 120 is often formed on the inner peripheral surface 106 of the container body 110 as well as on the upper surface of the rim portion 103 .

[0096] The container 101 has a cylindrical sidewall 104 whose diameter increases upward (tapering downward), a bottom 107, and a container body 110 that defines a space 105 therein. The container 101 has an opening 102 that opens at the upper end of the container body 110 (the upper end of the sidewall 104). Although not shown, the opening 102 of the container 101 is formed in a circular shape. However, the container 101 shown here is merely an example and is not intended to limit the configuration of the container 101. For example, the opening 102 of the container 101 may be formed in a rectangular shape. The container 101 may be any container as long as the opening 102 can be covered with the lid 10. In such a case, however, it is preferable that the shape of the lid 10 be a shape that matches the shape of the container 101 (e.g., a rectangular shape).

[0097] 15A, 15B, etc., the edge 103 of the opening 102 has a flange portion. The flange portion may be a curled portion 108 formed by outwardly winding a member forming the container body 110, or may be formed as a portion (a flange portion) that extends outward on a plane.

[0098] The material stored inside container 101 (space 105) is not particularly limited, and examples include liquid materials, materials containing both solid and liquid materials, materials in which gas is mixed or dissolved in a liquid (such as carbonated water), and combinations thereof, but the lid of the present invention is particularly effective when the contents contain (or include in the contents) a mixed fluid containing gas and liquid. In other words, when a fluid such as a liquid is contained, the mixed fluid may be blown outward from the opening of the container, causing the problem of the liquid constituting the mixed fluid leaking from inside the container.

[0099] In the container with lid 150, the lid has a layered structure formed from multiple paper-based materials, and each paper-based material has a gas ventilation path, so even if the internal pressure inside the container increases, gas can be released from inside the container to the outside as appropriate.

[0100] In the above explanation, a container with a lid was described as an example in which the container and lid are bonded together using the resin coating layer of the container, but the container and lid may also be bonded together by placing a resin different from the resin coating layer between the container and the lid.

[0101] Application Example 2 The lid 10 according to the present invention may be combined with a container 101 having an opening 102 .

[0102] As explained above, the present invention can be applied to many such embodiments. It can also be applied to stores and methods of providing packaging components other than those described above. The lid body according to the present invention has been described in detail above, but the above examples are merely examples of the lid body according to the present invention and are not limited to these. Therefore, modifications may be made as appropriate within the scope of the spirit of the present invention. Furthermore, the configurations of the inventions described above may be used independently of each other, or may be applied in appropriate combination.
