Abstract

PURPOSE: To provide a refreshing drink to which carbonic acid can be added at the time of drinking, by punching the pouring outlet of a container body by a needle to conduct carbonic acid powder enclosed in the cap body, when the cap body is pressed to the container body. CONSTITUTION: A cap body 3 is placed on the pouring inlet 2 so that a needle 4 provided in the inside does not contact the closed part of the pouring outlet 2, in a container body 1 charged with a juice or the like. When drinking the juice, the cap body 3 is strongly moved toward the container body by twisting it or other means to break the pouring end of the pouring outlet 2 by the needle 4 of cap body 3 and penetrate it into the outlet 2. Then the cap body 3 is shifted to the removing direction thereof. In this way, powdered carbonic acid 5 in the cap body 3 is forced to drop into the container body 1 through a hole formed at the closed part of the pouring outlet 2 and mix with the juice in the container body to obtain a refreshing soda drink.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a container made of synthetic resin, and more particularly to improvement of a container used as a carbonated beverage.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art It is well known in the prior art to mix soda with carbonic acid to prepare so-called soft drinks. However, this container has the drawback that the entire container must be made large because carbonic acid has already been mixed into the contents. In addition, this kind of product has a drawback that if so-called "drinking residue" occurs, the carbonic acid evaporates and the product is no longer a carbonated drink.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention enhances the effect as a soft drink and brings great interest to drinkers by carrying a carbonated powder separately from a container such as juice and mixing them together for drinking. It is designed so that it is a container of the same size as the contents such as juice, and it is designed to be a container of sufficient size even if carbonated powder is mixed when drinking. . Even if there is leftover drink, it is possible to provide a soft drink containing carbonic acid when drinking after that.

[0004]

A synthetic resin container according to the present invention has a container main body (1) having a liquid spout (2) with a closed pouring end and a filling port (2). And a cap member (3), and a needle member (4) whose end is fixed in the cap member (3) and whose tip can be fitted into the spout (2).
And carbon dioxide powder (5) enclosed in the cap body (3).

The cap body (3) is then attached to the container body (1).
When pressed in a direction, the needle member (4) punches out the spout (2) of the container body (1) to form a small hole (6) for introducing the carbon dioxide powder (5) into the container body (1). It is the one.

Now, juice or the like is enclosed in the container body (1). Further, the injection port (2) of the cap body (3) mouthpiece container body (1) is light, that is, the needle member (4) does not come into contact with the closed portion of the injection port (2). ). Then, a person who drinks this juice strongly moves the cap body (3) toward the container body (1) by means such as twisting.

As a result, the needle member (4) of the cap body (3)
Penetrates into the pouring port (2) by breaking the pouring end of the pouring port (2). Then, when the cap body (3) is moved in the removing direction, a small hole (6) is formed in the closed portion of the spout (2), and as a result, the carbon dioxide powder (5) in the cap body (3) is formed.
Are dropped into the container body (1) through the small holes (6) and mixed with the juice in the container body (1) to form carbonated soft drinks.

As described above, the synthetic resin container of the present invention can carry the carbonated powder (5), and by mixing the two at the time of drinking, the effect as a soft drink can be enhanced. I was able to get interested. For example, when half the juice in the container body (1) is to be drunk, the amount of the carbonic acid powder (5) supplied to the container body (1) can be reduced to about half, and when the next drink is taken, the remaining carbonate By mixing the powder (5) into the juice again, it is possible to always drink a soft drink containing carbonic acid.

It is one of the features of the present invention that a part or all of the container body (1) is a bellows-like part (7) which can be expanded and contracted. This is a container that is usually the same size as the contents such as juice in the manufacturing process, juice filling process, product distribution process and sales exhibition, and it is relatively easy to handle. However, even if the carbonated powder (5) is mixed during drinking, the bellows-like portion (7) can be expanded to be a container having a size large enough to serve as a carbonated beverage container, and at the same time a great interest to the user. I was able to hold him.

[0010]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS (1) In FIG. 1, (1) is a container made of synthetic resin, which is made by a blow molding method or the like, and has a horizontal bellows-like portion (7) above it. (2) is a spout that is projected upward from the upper surface of the container body (1), the upper surface of which is closed, and a threaded portion (8) is provided around the spout.
(3) is a cap body having an inner screw (9) that can be screwed into the threaded portion (8) of the spout (2), and a needle member (4) is hung downward from the center position of the inner surface ceiling. There is. Further, (5) is carbonic acid powder enclosed in the cap body (3).

Thus, the cap body (3) is usually screwed onto the threaded portion (8) of the spout (2), so that the end of the needle member (4) is closed in the spout (2). It is not in contact with the upper surface. Further, it is important that the bellows portion (7) of the container body (1) is in a contracted state.

Reference numeral (10) shown in FIG. 1 is an injection port for the contents such as juice provided in the center of the bottom surface of the container body (1). After the juice is filled in the container body (1), the injection port is shown. (10) is sealed by means such as heat welding. Further, the bottom of the container body (1) has a mountain shape (11), but this is done while injecting juice or the like while projecting downward so as to facilitate the injection work. After that, the device is designed to be pushed into the container for easy transportation.

[0013]

[Function and Effect] The container containing the contents such as juice is now transported from the factory in the state shown in FIG. In this case, since the container main body (1) contains the contained substance such as juice which is almost the same size as the container, the container can be relatively small as a so-called carbonated drink, It is convenient for packing and transportation.

Those who drink the contents such as juice,
As shown in FIG. 2, the cap body (3) is twisted to move the cap body (3) toward the container body (1). As a result, the tip of the needle member in the cap body (3) is not attached to the spout (2).
The upper surface of the is punched to form a small hole (6). As a result, the carbon dioxide powder (5) in the cap body (3) is twisted between the small hole (6) and the needle member (4) or by twisting the cap body (3) in the direction opposite to the above. Since the member (4) also rises, the small holes (6) are completely opened, and the carbonic acid powder (5) falls into the container and mixes with the contents such as juice and dissolves into so-called carbonated drinking water. is there.

The internal pressure of the CO ₂ gas generated at this time pushes and expands the bellows-like portion (7) of the container body (1), so that the bellows-like portion (7) extends and absorbs the internal pressure thereof. Since the volume of the main body (1) is expanded, there is no risk that the contents such as juice will overflow.

[0016]

As described above, according to the present invention, when the contained substance such as juice is drunk, the carbonic acid (5) and the contained substance are mixed, and the volume of the container body (1) is the presence of the bellows-like substance (7). Since it is enlarged, it can be of great interest to the user, and since it is a relatively small container during transportation or when it is lined up in a store, it requires less storage space. . For example, when half the juice in the container body (1) is to be drunk, the amount of the carbonic acid powder (5) supplied to the container body (1) can be reduced to about half, and when the next drink is taken, the remaining carbonate By mixing the powder (5) into the juice again, it is possible to always drink a soft drink containing carbonic acid.
