- the storage container has the structure that the surface of the support member and the container body are in intimate contact with each other widely, the adhesion therebetween tends to be insufficient such that the container body becomes wrinkled, the stored substance thereby remains in a gap (outer side of the support member) therebetween in sucking, and there is a possibility that the stored substance is wasted.
- the container body formed from the resin film has the structure in the shape of a box (with the bottom) in consideration of the shape retention property. However, in such a shape, even when the container body enters inside the support member in sucking, the adhesion with the inner surface of the support member deteriorates finally, and as a result, the stored substance tends to remain also on the inner surface side of the support member.
- a storage container enabling a stored substance to be extracted with minimum wastage while having inexpensive manufacturing cost.
- a storage container is provided with a tube-shaped storing portion formed of a resin having an extraction opening enabling a stored substance to be sucked in a center area on one end side, and a circular opening on the other end side, and a bag-shaped storing portion which is welded along the circular opening of the tube-shaped storing portion, enters inside the tube-shaped storing portion to be able to come into intimate contact with an inner surface of the tube-shaped storing portion in sucking through the extraction opening, and is formed of a thin film in the shape of a bag to be a non-independent body, where the tube-shaped storing portion changes in cross-sectional shape from a circular shape to an elliptical shape toward one end side from the other end side.

- the bag-shaped storing portion is configured as a non-independent body, when the bag-shaped storing portion is welded along the circular opening of the tube-shaped storing portion, its cross-sectional shape is circular in the welding portion, and the cross section changes to an elliptical shape as separating from the welding portion (the bag-shaped storing portion enters inside the tube-shaped storing portion and comes into intimate contact with the inner surface in sucking from the extraction opening of the tube-shaped storing portion.)
- the tube-shaped storing portion is changed in cross-sectional shape from a circular shape to an elliptical shape toward the extraction opening side from the welding portion, and thus is adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the entering bag-shaped storing portion, the bag-shaped storing portion comes into intimate contact with the inner surface of the tube-shaped storing portion without causing wrinkles or the like, and it is possible to extract the stored substance with efficiency.
- the tube-shaped storing portion is configured such that the welding portion with the bag-shaped storing portion is circular, therefore, does not cause a crush or the like in sucking the stored substance, and further has the configuration that the basic shape changes from circular cross section to elliptical cross section, the entire inner surface is thus configured as a curved surface, and therefore, the stored substance is hard to remain in sucking the stored substance.
- cut portions are formed in corner portions on an end portion side opposite to an end portion welded to the tube-shaped storing portion.
- the tube-shaped storing portion may have a curved portion such that the diameter decreases toward the extraction opening, and edge shapes of the cut portions formed in the bag-shaped storing portion are almost adapted to a shape of the curved portion.

Further, the storage container is in the form of a cylinder in the basic portion, the stored substance is thereby hard to remain in sucking the stored substance, and with respect to the bag-shaped storing portion, since the corner portions are cut on the end portion side opposite to the welding portion in the non-independent body, the stored substance is hard to remain.
- the bag-shaped storing portion has the length in the range of 90% to 110% relative to the storing length in the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical storing portion, its bottom edge area can be located in the vicinity of the extraction opening portion when the bag-shaped storing portion is inverted and drawn into the inside of the cylindrical storing portion in sucking, and by this means, it is possible to extract the stored substance with efficiency.

Further, the thickness is only required to be an extent (for example, about 0.8 mm to 2.0 mm) to which the shape is maintained when the bag-shaped storing portion 3 is inverted and drawn into the inside in sucking.
- a plastic material such as, for example, polyethylene, polystyrene, polypropylene and polyvinyl chloride
- the cross section changes in shape from a circular shape to an elliptical shape toward the extraction opening 2a side from the welding portion 2d with the bag-shaped storing portion 3. This is because of adapting to the cross-sectional shape of the bag-shaped storing portion 3 entering inside the tube-shaped storing portion 2 in sucking the extraction opening portion to extract the stored substance.
- the bag-shaped storing portion 3 is configured as a non-independent body (three sides, side portions and bottom portion, are welded) that is easily manufactured, and therefore, when the portion 3 is welded along the circular opening of the tube-shaped storing portion 2, the cross-sectional shape is circular in the welding portion 2d, while changing to an elliptical shape as separating from the welding portion.
- the bag-shaped storing portion 3 comes into intimate contact with the inner surface of the tube-shaped storing portion without causing wrinkles or the like in inverting and entering inside the tube-shaped storing portion 2, and it is possible to extract the stored substance from the extraction opening 2a with efficiency.

More specifically, the shape as shown in FIG. 5B is preferably adapted to the tube-shaped storing portion such that the curved portion is a relatively gently surface as shown in FIG. 2 , and the shape as shown in FIG. 5C is preferably adapted to the tube-shaped storing portion such that the curved portion 2b is a relatively longer surface along the longitudinal direction than that in the configuration as shown in FIG. 2 .
- the capacity of the bag-shaped storing portion 3 is preferably set at the same (including substantially the same) capacity of the tube-shaped storing portion 2.
- the capacity of the bag-shaped storing portion 3 is smaller than that of the tube-shaped storing portion 2
- the distance between the bottom edge 3a inside the bag-shaped storing portion and the opening 2A on the storing portion side of the extraction opening 2a increases, and by this means, as the internal pressure decreases by suction, the possibility increases that the stored substance existing in the area of the bottom edge 3a does not undergo sufficient suction and remains.

Meanwhile, when the inner surface of the bag-shaped storing portion 3 comes into intimate contact with the inner surface of the tube-shaped storing portion 2, the suction force does not act on the bag-shaped storing portion 3. However, since the curved shape is formed such that the diameter decreases gradually toward the extraction opening 2a side, it is possible to extract the stored substance as much as possible even when the suction force reduces.
- the radial protrusion portions 2c extending toward the extraction opening 2a are formed in the inner surface of the curved portion 2b, flow paths toward the extraction opening 2a are easy to reserve, and it is possible to efficiently extract the stored substance.

Then, in actual use, the container 1 is inserted in a predetermined portion of an external apparatus with the sealing member removed, and the stored substance is extracted by a sucking mechanism such as a pump.
- the extraction opening may have a configuration that an extraction needle is inserted in the sealing member to suck the stored substance.
- the cylindrical storing portion 102 is formed in one piece (resin molding) of a plastic material such as, for example, polyethylene, polystyrene and polypropylene, and the thickness thereof is only required to be an extent (for example, about 0.3 mm to 1.8 mm) to which the cylindrical shape is maintained when the bag-shaped storing portion 103 is inverted and drawn into the inside in sucking.
- a plastic material such as, for example, polyethylene, polystyrene and polypropylene
- the outside shape is not limited particularly, and in this embodiment, as shown in FIGs. 9 and 10A , a curved portion 102b is formed such that the diameter gradually decreases in the shape of a funnel toward the extraction opening 102a positioned on the center axis from the upper end side of the circumferential side wall. Then, it is preferable that radial protrusion portions 102c are formed in the inner surface of the curved portion 102b to extend toward the extraction opening 102a.
- the radial protrusion portions 102c constitute a flow path guide to enable the stored substance to effectively move toward the extraction opening 102a in sucking, and can be integrally formed in molding.
- the specific extension length, pitch and height of the radial protrusion portions 102c are capable of being modified as appropriate corresponding to dimensions of the cylindrical storing portion 102, type (viscosity) of the stored substance, etc.
- the portion may have a gentle surface 102b' changing to the extraction opening 102a from the circular side wall, or as shown in FIG. 10C , may have a flat surface 102b" (surface with a substantially right angle) changing to the extraction opening 102a from the side wall without forming the curved portion.
- the shape can be modified as appropriate, and further, may be formed of an acuter tapered curved surface than the curved surface of FIG. 10A .
- a welding portion 102d is formed on the lower end side of the cylindrical storing portion 102 to facilitate welding of the opening end portion of the bag-shaped storing portion 103.
- the welding portion 102d has a predetermined length L2 (about 5 mm to 15 mm) in the longitudinal direction.
- the portion 102d may be formed of a circular surface with a diameter smaller than that of the cylindrical portion of the cylindrical storing portion 102.
- the welding portion 102d is be covered with the opening area of the bag-shaped storing portion 103, and then, welded by heat using a heat bar or the like, and it is thereby possible to weld the bag-shaped storing portion 103 to the cylindrical storing portion 102 with ease.
- the bag-shaped storing portion 103 is formed in the shape of a bag by welding the circumference of a thin-film-shaped film (thin film with a thickness ranging from about 0.05 mm to 0.15 mm) having flexibility made of polyethylene, polypropylene or the like, and is configured, for example, as a three-side seal bag such that two films are stacked and welded in the circumference, or a two-side seal bag such that a single film is folded and welded in the side and bottom.
- the portion 103 may be configured as a tube-shaped bag.
- the bag-shaped storing portion has the structure where one end is opened to enable the portion 103 to be welded to the circular opening (welding portion 102d) of the cylindrical storing portion 102, while a bottom that is a plane is not formed in the other end (such a structure is referred to as a non-independent body) (the welding area is shown by oblique lines). Further, the bag-shaped storing portion is configured such that corner portions on the end portion side opposite to the welding portion 102d are cut. More specifically, the shape of the side surface is not rectangular as shown in FIG. 11 , and, for example, as shown in FIG. 12A , by cutting the corner portions on the end portion side, has the configuration that does not cause the point portions P of 90 degrees or less between the bottom edge 103a and side edges 103b inside the storing portion as shown in FIG. 11 .
- an aspect of the cut between the bottom edge 103a and side edge 103b inside the storing portion is not limited particularly, and the cut may be made so that the bottom edge 103a is longer than that shown in FIG. 12A as shown in FIG. 12B or may be made so that the bottom edge 103a is longer as shown in FIG. 12C .
- the shape of the cut portion i.e. edge shape 103d that is the cut portion is preferably formed in the shape in accordance with the curved portion 102b formed in the cylindrical storing portion 102.
- the shape as shown in FIG. 12A is preferably adapted to the cylindrical storing portion such that the curved portion is a relatively gently surface as shown in FIG. 12A
- the shape as shown in FIG. 12B is preferably adapted to the cylindrical storing portion such that the curved portion 102b is a relatively longer surface along the longitudinal direction than that in the configuration as shown in FIG. 12A
- the shape as shown in FIG. 12C is preferably adapted to the cylindrical storing portion such that the curved portion is a gentler surface as shown in FIG. 10B .
- the length L1 (see FIG. 9 ) of the bag-shaped storing portion 103 is configured to be the length in the range of 90% to 110% relative to the storing length L in the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical storing portion 102.
- the length L1 of bag-shaped storing portion 103 is less than 90% relative to the storing length L in the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical storing portion 102
- the distance between the bottom edge 103a inside the storing portion and the opening 102A on the storing portion side of the extraction opening 102a increases, and by this means, as the internal pressure decreases by suction, the possibility increases that the stored substance existing in the area of the bottom edge 103a does not undergo sufficient suction and remains.
- FIGs. 13A to 13F described next is a result of welding the bag-shaped storing portion 103 as shown in FIG. 12A to the cylindrical storing portion 102 with the configuration as shown in FIG. 10A to form a storage container, storing a viscous stored substance (commercially available mayonnaise) in the storage container, and extracting the stored substance by applying a predetermined suction force.
- a viscous stored substance commercially available mayonnaise
- the bag-shaped storing portion 103 gradually shrinks while causing vertical wrinkles, and the bottom edge 103a rises toward the circular opening (area of the welding portion 102d) of the cylindrical storing portion 102 (see FIGs. 13B and 13C ).
- the bottom edge 103a inside the storing portion passes through the circular opening (area of the welding portion 102d) of the cylindrical storing portion 102 and rises with the flow of the stored substance, and the bag-shaped storing portion 103 is inverted and drawn into the inside space of the cylindrical storing portion 102 (see FIGs. 13D and 13E ).
- the inner surface of the bag-shaped storing portion 103 comes into intimate contact with the inner surface of the cylindrical storing portion 102 (see FIG. 13F ), and the stored substance concentrates on the opening area on the storing portion side of the extraction opening 102.
- the bag-shaped storing portion 103 when the bag-shaped storing portion 103 is inverted and drawn into the inside space of the cylindrical storing portion 102, the inner surface of the bag-shaped storing portion 103 comes into intimate contact with the inner surface of the cylindrical storing portion 102, and since the inner surface of the cylindrical storing portion 102 is a curved surface and any point portions do not exist, the bag-shaped storing portion 103 is hard to come into intimate contact when becoming wrinkled, and enables the stored substance to be sucked (squeezed) as much as possible. Further, when the inner surface of the bag-shaped storing portion 103 comes into intimate contact with the inner surface of the cylindrical storing portion 102, the suction force does not act on the bag-shaped storing portion 103. However, since the curved shape is formed such that the diameter decreases gradually toward the extraction opening 102a side in the shape of a funnel, it is possible to extract the stored substance as much as possible even when the suction force reduces.
- the radial protrusion portions 102c extending toward the extraction opening 102a are formed in the inner surface of the curved portion 102b, flow paths toward the extraction opening 102a are easy to reserve, and it is possible to efficiently extract the stored substance.
- the bag-shaped storing portion 103 is formed of a thin film, and therefore, sometimes partially shrinks.
- the length L1 is set at the range of 90% to 110% relative to the storing length L in the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical storing portion 102, as shown in FIG. 13F , the bottom edge 103a area can be positioned in the vicinity of the extraction opening portion, and by this means, it is possible to efficiently extract the stored substance even when the internal pressure decreases by suction.
- the bag-shaped storing portion 103 is a non-independent body, and is configured so that points portions with an acute angle do not exist in the bottom edge portion by cutting corner portions on the end portion side, and further, since the edge shape of the cut portion is formed to follow the curved portion of the cylindrical storing portion 102, it is possible to extract the stored substance efficiently without the substance remaining.
- the storage container 101 as described above has the structure that the bag-shaped storing portion 103 formed in the shape of a bag to be a non-independent body is welded along the circular opening on the other end side of the cylindrical storing portion 102 made of a resin having the extraction opening 102a, the structure is simple and is easy to manufacture, and it is possible to obtain the configuration with the cost reduced, easy to recycle, and the like.
- the cross-sectional shape is not changed along the longitudinal direction, but may be changed as in embodiment 1 described previously.
- the end portion may be cut in the shape of an arc, or may be cut by a plurality of straight lines in multi-stage without cutting in the shape of an arc.
