Reference numeral 2 denotes a substantially hemispherical inner cap which can be fitted by a fitting portion 9 of the container main body 1 threaded so as to be fitted to each other and a fitting portion 10 of the cap 2. Reference numeral 3 denotes a substantially cylindrical outer cap, which can be fitted by a fitting portion 8 of the container body 1 threaded so as to be fitted to each other and a fitting portion 11 inside the cap 3.
[0018]
In the figure, the desiccant 6 is accommodated in the bottom part inside the container main body 1, and the presser plate 7 is engaged at the position of the locking projection 5 formed integrally with the container main body 1 from above. . This prevents the desiccant from being scattered in the container body when the container body 1 is tilted in order to take out the contents (elongated plate-like body) 15. This presser plate 7 may be a paper material or a non-breathable molded product. However, in the case of a non-breathable molded product, several air holes or slits are provided on the surface of the presser plate 7 to provide a desiccant. 6 can exhibit hygroscopicity in the container.

The stored item (blood glucose level sensor) 15 is a thin and long rectangular shape having a thin thickness, and has a substantially semicircular shape on one short side, and the inner cap 2 is fitted into the opening of the container body 1. It is accommodated before being joined and remains on the upper surface of the pressing plate 7.
[0020]
The inner cap 2 has a hemispherical shape on both the inner side and the outer side. Here, as long as the outer cap 3 can be fitted to the container body 1, the outer cap of the inner cap 2 does not necessarily have a hemispherical shape, but the inner side of the cap 2 has a hemispherical shape. It is necessary. This is because the inside of the inner cap 2 is slippery when the blood sugar level sensor 15 comes into contact with the inner surface of the inner cap 2, and the contents 15 are easily collected at the apex of the inner cap 2. As shown in FIG. 3, a slit-shaped slit hole 4 having a dimension taking into account the clearance with respect to the width and thickness of the single item is provided at the apex of the cap B2.
[0021]
The slit hole 4 is a circular hole 4a having a circular central part, and a plurality of grooved holes 4b extending radially from the central part toward the periphery of the inner cap 2 are arranged at a predetermined angle (in the example of FIG. 3). 45 °). The groove-like hole 4b has a width and a length that allow one container 15 to pass through as a pair of two opposite each other across the circular hole 4a.
[0022]
Thus, by providing the circular hole 4a in the center of the slit hole 4, when the container is tilted and shaken lightly in order to take out one of the stored items stored in the container, the stored item is a groove-shaped hole in the slit hole 4. It becomes easy to enter 4b.
[0023]
Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, the blood glucose level sensor 15 can be easily operated by tilting and lightly shaking the container main body 1 so that the inner cap 2 is positioned below with the inner cap 2 fitted to the container main body 1. In addition, it is possible to reliably take out a single quantity.
[0024]
Moreover, since the opening part in the state which removed the outer cap 3 is small, high airtightness can be acquired compared with the conventional one.
[0025]
Further, a seal 13, which is a separate material from the outer cap 3, is provided on the inner side of the outer cap 3. Furthermore, a rubber cap (closing member) 12 made of a rubber material having a size capable of closing the star-shaped hole 4 of the inner cap 2 is provided at the center of the seal 13. For this reason, when the inner cap 2 and the outer cap 3 are fitted to the container body 1, the airtightness of the entire container can be further improved.
[0026]
As described above, according to the first embodiment, the inner side of the inner cap that fits into the cylindrical container body has a hemispherical shape, the center is circular at the apex, and a predetermined angle is formed toward the periphery. A groove-shaped slit extending radially is provided, and the inner container is taken out through the slit, so that the elongated plate-shaped drug, food, etc. can be reliably removed from the container with the inner cap fitted. In addition, the desired quantity can be taken out, and since the opening is narrow, the internal airtightness can be improved. In addition, a rubber cap shaped to cover the slit forming area outside the inner cap at the time of fitting is provided on the inner side of the outer cap to be fitted with the container body fitted with the inner cap. It is possible to improve the container, and it is easy to take out the contents individually, and it is possible to obtain a container having good airtightness.
[0027]
In the first embodiment, the drug-related blood glucose level sensor is described as an example of the stored item, but the present invention can be similarly applied to a container that stores food.
In the first embodiment, the outer cap and the container main body are fitted with screws, but this fitting may be performed by press-fitting. In this case, the outer cap and the container main body are threaded. Is unnecessary.
[0028]
Furthermore, in the first embodiment, the inner surface of the inner cap has a hemispherical shape. However, the inner cap may have a concave shape such as a mortar shape, and the inner cap may be inclined when the container is tilted. Any shape may be used as long as the contents are collected in the central portion of the container.
