- approximately quadrangular shape is not limited to a quadrilateral shape according to a mathematical definition, but may also be a shape that can be considered to be substantially a quadrilateral with rounding, etc. that can be provided as an industrial product. .
- the quadrilateral is a square.
- the mouth portion 12 is an opening through which the liquid product filled inside is taken in and taken out, and a male threaded portion for screwing a cap (not shown) is provided on its outer surface.
- the shoulder portion 13 is a portion where the bottle 10 gradually expands from the mouth portion 12 toward the body portion 14. Note that the position in the height direction where the bottle 10 gradually expands downward from the mouth portion 12 and expands to the maximum is defined as the boundary between the shoulder portion 13 and the body portion 14.
- the bottom part 15 is a part that becomes a ground surface when the bottle 10 is placed on a surface such as a desk, and the bottle 10 gradually expands from the bottom part 15 toward the body part 14.
- the position in the height direction where the bottle 10 gradually expands upward from the ground surface and expands to the maximum is defined as the boundary between the bottom portion 15 and the body portion 14.
- the structure and function of the mouth part 12, shoulder part 13, and bottom part 15 are generally similar to the mouth part, shoulder part, and bottom part of a known plastic bottle, so a detailed description thereof will be omitted.
- the body portion 14 is a substantially rectangular cylindrical portion (an example of a substantially rectangular cylindrical shape) extending between the shoulder portion 13 and the bottom portion 15, and has vertical convex ribs 141 extending in the vertical direction (vertically extending in the vertical direction). (This is an example of an extending convex rib.), and a horizontally concave rib 142 (This is an example of a concave rib that extends in the circumferential direction of the body) that extends in the horizontal direction. Since the body portion 14 has a substantially rectangular cylindrical shape, the body portion 14 has four surface portions 143, and a ridge portion 144 extending in the vertical direction is formed at a portion where the two surface portions 143 meet.
- the body portion 14 has irregularities due to the vertical convex ribs 141 and the horizontal concave ribs 142, but it is handled as a substantially rectangular cylindrical shape as a handling feature during manufacturing and distribution. That is, the substantially rectangular cylindrical shape (substantially rectangular cylindrical shape) regarding the body portion 14 does not necessarily have to be a rectangular cylindrical shape (square cylindrical shape) in a mathematical sense.

- the repulsive force at the bendable ridge portion 144a is suppressed, so that a container that is easier to fold than conventional plastic bottles is realized. ing. Moreover, suppressing the repulsive force also has the effect of suppressing the bottle 10 from returning to its original shape after being folded. These effects can reduce the volume when the used bottle 10 is folded, stored, transported, etc. for reuse, disposal, etc.
- a bottle 16 shown in FIG. 12 was used.

Abstract
Description
本発明に係る樹脂製容器の第一の実施形態について、図面を参照して説明する。以下では、本発明に係る樹脂製容器を、プラスチックボトル1(以下、単にボトル1と称する。)に適用した例について説明する。
本実施形態に係るボトル1はポリエチレンテレフタレート製であり、無色透明の容器である。ボトル1は、ポリエチレンテレフタレート製のプリフォームを原料とする二軸延伸ブロー成形により得られる。なお、ボトルを構成する材料は、ポリエチレンテレフタレートに限定されず、たとえば、ポリエチレンやポリプロピレンなどであってもよい。また、当該材料の由来は、石油、植物由来原料、リサイクル原料などでありうる。
肩部3は、口部2と胴部4とを連続的に接続する形状を有する。口部2が略円筒体の外面に雄ねじ部が設けられた形状であり、胴部4が略四角柱状の形状であるため、肩部3は、上側の端部ではその断面が略円形であり、下側の端部ではその断面が略四角形である。平面図(図3)では、肩部3の形状は下側の端部の略四角形状の形状として現れる。
胴部4は、肩部3に連設されている側(上側)から底部5に連設されている側(下側)に向かう順に、上側部分41、特定部分42、および下側部分43に区分される。胴部4は、上側部分41、特定部分42、および下側部分43の水平方向寸法に差異があることおよび複数のリブ(後述する。)が設けられていることに起因して正面図および側面図において凹凸が認められるが、製造時や流通時などにおける取扱上の特徴として略四角筒状として取り扱われる。すなわち、胴部4についていう略四角筒状とは、数学的な意味で四角筒状であることを要さない。
上側部分41は、胴部4のうち特定部分42より上側の部分、すなわち特定部分42と肩部3との間の部分である。上側部分41には、肩部3と上側部分41との境目に沿う第一横リブ61(凹リブの一例である。)と、複数(本実施形態では五つ)の第二横リブ62と、が設けられている(図1および図2)。第一横リブ61は、横断面の長辺側の面(図1)および短辺側の面(図2)の各面(全四面)に、それぞれの面の範囲内に収まる長さで設けられた凹リブ(ボトル1の内側方向に突入する態様のリブをいう。以下同じ。)である。第一横リブ61の深さは均一である。なお、凹リブの深さとは、リブがボトル1の内側に突入する深さをいい、以下の他の凹リブについても同様とする。
特定部分42は、上側部分41および下側部分43よりもボトル1の内側に凹んだ部分として形成されている(図1および図2)。特定部分42の横断面を図4に示す。当該横断面において対向する二組の辺44、45を認めることができ、一方の組の辺44は長辺側の面(図1)に対応し、他方の組の辺45は短辺側の面(図2)に対応する。これらの二組の対向する辺44、45を延長すると、平行四辺形Pが形成される。この平行四辺形Pは、内角が鋭角の頂点P1と内角が鈍角の頂点P2と、を有し、したがって平行四辺形Pの内角は直角ではない。すなわち、平行四辺形Pは長方形ではない。
下側部分43は、胴部4のうち特定部分42より下側の部分、すなわち特定部分42と底部5との間の部分である。下側部分43には、上から順に、波状リブ64、バネリブ65、および複数(本実施形態では二つ)の第四横リブ66が設けられている。これらのリブはいずれも凹リブである。また、下側部分43の横断面の長辺側の面(図1)と短辺側の面(図2)との境目のうち、第一縦リブ71の下方に位置する二つの境目に沿って延びる第二縦リブ72が設けられている。第二縦リブ72は、波状リブ64および第四横リブ66を横切る態様で設けられた凸リブである。なお、下側部分43の横断面形状は、ボトル1の平面図(図3)と実質的に同一である。
本実施形態に係るボトル1では、上記の各構成要素を設けることによって、従来のプラスチックボトルに比べて折りたたみやすい容器が実現されている。使用後のボトル1を折りたたむことによって、使用後のボトル1を再利用、廃棄等のために保管、運搬等する際の体積を低減できる。以下では、ボトル1を折りたたむ方法を説明する。
本発明に係る樹脂製容器のその他の実施形態について説明する。なお、以下のそれぞれの実施形態で開示される構成は、矛盾が生じない限り、他の実施形態で開示される構成と組み合わせて適用することも可能である。
本発明に係る樹脂製容器の第二の実施形態について、図面を参照して説明する。以下では、本発明に係る樹脂製容器を、プラスチックボトル10(以下、単にボトル10と称する。)に適用した例について説明する。
本実施形態に係るボトル10はポリエチレンテレフタレート製であり、無色透明の容器である。ボトル10は、ポリエチレンテレフタレート製のプリフォームを原料とする二軸延伸ブロー成形により得られる。なお、ボトルを構成する材料は、ポリエチレンテレフタレートに限定されず、たとえば、ポリエチレンやポリプロピレンなどであってもよい。また、当該材料の由来は、石油、植物由来原料、リサイクル原料などでありうる。
胴部14は、肩部13と底部15との間に延在する略四角筒状(略角筒状の一例である。)の部分であり、上下方向に延びる縦凸リブ141(上下方向に延びる凸リブの一例である。)と、水平方向に延びる横凹リブ142(胴部の周方向に延びる凹リブの一例である。)と、有する。胴部14が略四角筒状であることから、胴部14は四つの面部143を有し、二つの面部143が会合する部分に上下方向に延びる稜部144が形成されている。胴部14は、縦凸リブ141および横凹リブ142が設けられていることに起因して凹凸が認められるが、製造時や流通時などにおける取扱上の特徴として略四角筒状として取り扱われる。すなわち、胴部14についていう略四角筒状(略角筒状)とは、数学的な意味で四角筒状(角筒状)であることを要さない。
本実施形態に係るボトル10では、ボトル10を折りたたむべく胴部14を潰す際に二つの縦凸リブ141が折り目として機能して、二つの稜部144aにおける胴部14の折れ曲がりが誘発される。図10は、縦凸リブ141が設けられていない二つの稜部144b同士を近づけるように胴部14を押した際の胴部14の断面形状の変化を示しており、この操作により、胴部14を平らに潰すことができる。
以下では、実施例を用いて本実施形態をさらに説明する。ただし、以下の実施例は本発明を限定しない。
実施例として、上記の実施形態に係るボトル10(図8、図9)を用いた。
(1)満注容量の測定
実施例および比較例の各例のボトルについて、風袋質量および水を満充填した後の質量を測定した。両者を差し引きして得られる値を、ボトルの満注容量とした。水の充填は、ボトルを完全に浸漬できる量の水を張った水槽に、ボトルを横向き姿勢(口部12と底部15とを左右方向に配置した姿勢をいう。)で浸漬することにより行った。なお、この方法により得られる数値は質量(グラム単位)であるが、容量(mL単位)の近似値とみなせるため、「満注容量」と称している。
実施例および比較例の各例のボトルについて、ボトルの稜部を一つ選択し、当該稜部上に三つの押圧点を設定した。第一の押圧点は、底部15側から一つ目の横凹リブ142と二つ目の横凹リブ142との中間点とした。第二の押圧点は、底部15側から三つ目の横凹リブ142と四つ目の横凹リブ142との中間点とした。第三の押圧点は、胴部14の上端(肩部13と胴部14との境界)とした。押しつぶしの単位操作を、押圧点に対向する稜部を親指以外の四本の指で支持した状態で押圧点を親指で押さえて、対向する二つの稜部が互いに接するまでボトルを変形させる操作とした。この単位操作を、第一の押圧点、第二の押圧点、第三の押圧点の順で行った。なお、単位操作の回数は各押圧点につき一回とした。また、ボトル10(実施例)については、縦凸リブ141が設けられていない稜部に押圧点を設定し、ボトル16(比較例1)については、縦凹リブ146が設けられていない稜部に押圧点を設定した。
実施例および比較例の各例のボトルを上記の手順で押しつぶした後に、満注容量の測定と同様の方法で、押しつぶし後の容量を測定した。満注容量に対する押しつぶし後の容量の割合を百分率で表した容積残存率を比較した。容積残存率が小さいほど、押しつぶし操作によって空容器の容量を削減する効果が大きいといえる。
実施例の容積残存率は53%であり、比較例1の容積残存率は60%であり、比較例2の容積残存率は67%だった。すなわち、縦凸リブ141を設けたボトル10において、空容器の容量を削減する効果が最も大きかった。以上の試験から、実施例において、折りたたみやすく、かつ折りたたまれた後に元の形状に戻りにくいボトルが実現されていることを確認した。
本発明に係る樹脂製容器のその他の実施形態について説明する。なお、以下のそれぞれの実施形態で開示される構成は、矛盾が生じない限り、他の実施形態で開示される構成と組み合わせて適用することも可能である。
