Description

本発明は、フィルムパウチと外装具からなる詰め替え用容器に関する。 The present invention relates to a refillable container including a film pouch and an orthosis.

洗剤等の詰め替え用に使用されるパウチの代表的ラミネート材構成はＯ-ＮＹ//ＬＬＤＰＥ、ＰＥＴ//Ｏ-ＮＹ//ＬＬＤＰＥ、Ｏ-ＮＹ//ＶＭ-ＰＥＴ//ＬＬＤＰＥ、ＰＥＴ//ＡＬ//Ｏ-ＮＹ//ＬＬＤＰＥ等である。今日、プラスチック素材の多用化の流れと廃棄物問題が国際的に取り上げられている中で、詰め替え用パウチ等でゴミ総量の減容化を図る事は良い方向性であるが、パウチ自身もまた店頭での自立性確保の目的よりから、厚手のラミネート材を使用する傾向が有る。一般的な現行上部詰め替え口タイプのパウチは手を添えての詰め替え作業が前提と成るが、最近開発された詰め替え時パウチで詰め替え対象ボトル上に倒立させ、手を添える事を改善したタイプの物も発売されている。しかしそれらも同様で、自立性確保の為肉厚の厚い物が必要と成って来る。上記のパウチ仕様は種々のプラスチック素材を多層ラミネートした厚肉のフィルム構成と成って居るが、時代の要求であり包装資材として目標としなければ行けない環境面への配慮や、環境3R の意識から、年々薄肉化も進み、使い勝手と商品保持性の機能面から、各種プラスチック材料も組み合わせ等にも、自立性とREDUCTION(軽量化)の両立を考慮した開発がなされている。また、廃棄性の問題から、バリア層にアルミ箔を用いたラミネート仕様から、蒸着手法材を使用したタイプへの置き換えが進んでいる。一方で注ぎ性と易使用性を目的とした差別化は不可欠で、その為に各メーカーでは色々なパウチ形状の検討や、注ぎ口の形態等で利便性を向上した包装形態の研究開発を進めながらプラスチック素材を成るべく減容化した仕様で且つ、消費者の老齢化に向けて簡便で使い勝手の良い製品化への対応を目指している。 Typical laminate composition of pouches used for refilling detergents is O-NY // LLDPE, PET // O-NY // LLDPE, O-NY // VM-PET // LLDPE, PET // AL // O-NY // LLDPE etc. Today, with the trend of increasing use of plastic materials and the problem of waste being taken up internationally, it is a good direction to reduce the total amount of garbage with refill pouches, but the pouch itself is also There is a tendency to use thick laminate materials for the purpose of ensuring independence at stores. The general current upper refill mouth type pouch is premised on refilling work with a hand, but the recently developed refill pouch is a type that is improved by inverting it on the bottle to be refilled and putting a hand on it. Is also on sale. However, the same is true for them, and thick materials are needed to ensure independence. The above pouch specifications consist of a thick film made by laminating various plastic materials in multiple layers, but from the environmental considerations that are required by the times and must be targeted as packaging materials, and from the awareness of the 3Rs. The wall thickness is getting thinner year by year, and from the functional aspects of usability and product retention, various plastic materials and combinations have been developed in consideration of both independence and REDUCTION (lightening). In addition, due to the problem of disposability, the laminating specification using aluminum foil for the barrier layer is being replaced with the type using a thin-film deposition method material. On the other hand, differentiation for pouring and ease of use is indispensable, and for that purpose, each manufacturer is studying various pouch shapes and researching and developing packaging forms that improve convenience by spouting forms. However, the specifications are such that the volume of the plastic material is reduced as much as possible, and we are aiming for a simple and easy-to-use product for the aging of consumers.

特願２０１３−１３９８８５Japanese Patent Application No. 2013-139858

例えば特許文献１の特開２０１３−１３９８８５のスパウトはスパウト内部に隔壁部を有しており、詰め替え用のボトル口部内に備え付けられたくちばし状のノズル部で内部の隔壁部を突き破り内容液を注ぎ入れる方法で詰め替えを行うものである。しかし液体洗剤等の大型ブローボトルの場合はその様な形状の物が多いが、本発明の対象と成るシャンプー、リンス等の風呂場で使用する液体洗剤容器の場合、この様な仕様のくちばし状のノズル品は使用しておらず、詰め替え用ボトルのポンプを使用して抽出する。一般的な詰め替えスパウトを用いてパウチ本体とシールする方法で内容物を抽出する」と有り、フランジ部の形状、大きさを請求項で指定しているが、これは詰め替え時に詰め替え対象ボトルに倒立させる際にパウチを平衡化させ安定させるためにこの必要性が生じており、これらを別案で解決する事も課題の一つと成って居る。
また、本発明が解決しようとする課題には、環境に配慮した素材を使う事と、必要最小限度のプラスチック使用量を目指す事と、生産者である洗剤充填メーカー側の生産設備の大幅な変更の伴わない包装形態で、消費者に向けては従来の詰め替え用パウチの様に、詰め替え作業時にボトル口部にパウチの詰め替え口を差し込み、詰め替え対象ボトル上で倒れない様に長時間最後まで手でパウチ本体も支えて居なければならない等々の詰め替え作業の問題の解消をも課題としている。 For example, the spout of Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2013-139885 of Patent Document 1 has a partition portion inside the spout, and a beak-shaped nozzle portion provided in the bottle mouth for refilling penetrates the partition portion inside to pour the content liquid. It is refilled by the method of inserting. However, in the case of large blow bottles such as liquid detergents, there are many things with such a shape, but in the case of liquid detergent containers used in bathrooms such as shampoos and conditioners, which are the objects of the present invention, the beak shape of such specifications. No nozzle product is used, and it is extracted using the pump of the refill bottle. The contents are extracted by sealing with the pouch body using a general refill spout. ”The shape and size of the flange are specified in the claim, but this is inverted on the bottle to be refilled at the time of refilling. This need arises in order to equilibrate and stabilize the pouch when it is used, and it is one of the problems to solve these by another plan.
In addition, the problems to be solved by the present invention include using environmentally friendly materials, aiming for the minimum necessary amount of plastic used, and drastically changing the production equipment on the side of the detergent filling manufacturer, which is the producer. In a packaging form that does not involve refilling, the refilling port of the pouch is inserted into the bottle mouth during refilling work for consumers like a conventional refilling pouch, and it is handed to the end for a long time so that it will not fall on the bottle to be refilled. The problem of refilling work, such as the need to support the pouch itself, is also an issue.

上記目的を達成する為に、本発明は下記の構成要因で解決しようとしている。
（１）ラミネートフィルム基材に溶着されたスパウトを有するフィルムパウチが内在し、上面に抽出口と成るスパウトを突出させるための穴もしくはカット部で取り除かれた開口部を備え、側部と底部を有し、外面より支える補助具で覆われた事からなる補助具付き詰め替えパウチにより解決手段としている。
（２）前記補助具は、厚紙又は石灰石原料紙又は植物由来プラスチック素材から成る事を特徴とした補助具付き詰め替えパウチにより解決手段としている。
（３）前記補助具の開口部は、詰め替え時の重量バランスを取るため、上面視で、前後左右の中心に施されたことを特徴とする補助具付き詰め替えパウチにより解決手段としている。
（４）補助具とフィルムパウチの互いが一部又は全面で接着され、固定化させたことを特徴とする補助具付き詰め替えパウチにより解決手段としている。
（５）内部に収納されたフィルムパウチの肩部及び底部の角部が内容液の抽出を容易にする形状のＵ字形もしくは台形にシールされた事を特徴とする補助具付き詰め替えパウチにより解決手段としている。 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is going to be solved by the following constituent factors.
(1) A film pouch having a spout welded to a laminated film base material is inside, and a hole or an opening removed by a cut portion for projecting a spout serving as an extraction port is provided on the upper surface, and the side portion and the bottom portion are provided. The solution is to use a refillable pouch with an auxiliary tool that has and is covered with an auxiliary tool that supports it from the outside.
(2) The auxiliary tool is a refillable pouch with an auxiliary tool, which is characterized by being made of cardboard, limestone raw material paper, or a plant-derived plastic material.
(3) In order to balance the weight at the time of refilling, the opening of the auxiliary tool is provided as a solution by a refill pouch with an auxiliary tool, which is characterized in that it is provided at the center of the front, back, left and right in a top view.
(4) A refill pouch with an auxiliary tool, which is characterized in that the auxiliary tool and the film pouch are partially or wholly adhered to each other and fixed, is used as a solution.
(5) Solution by refilling pouch with auxiliary tool, which is characterized in that the shoulder and bottom corners of the film pouch housed inside are sealed in a U-shape or trapezoid shape that facilitates extraction of the content liquid. It is said.

（１）本発明の補助具付き詰め替えパウチは、内容液が入るフィルムパウチ部分は従来仕様品の様に厚手の多層品としない必要最小限度の肉厚仕様で、低密度ポリエチレン(LLDPE）を最内層として、外層にナイロン（O-NY）又はポリエチレンテレフタレート（PET）にアルミやシリカ素材の蒸着加工を施した構成張り合わせ品でも可能で、またそうした薄肉品仕様品であることを特徴として居る。
（２）上記仕様のラミネートフィルムにスパウトを取り付けて出来たフィルムパウチは薄肉軟質で有る事より内溶液を充填後の保形性、強度が乏しく、店頭での自立性や、詰め替え時にボトル上での安定性させる事が困難であり、外面より箱状の補助具で一体化させる方法で組み合わせる事でフィルムに求められる物流時の強度や自立性が、補完される。本発明の場合この補助具付きパウチと成す構造とすることにより相互の機能と長所を活用する効果を作り出せる。
（３）本発明の場合は詰め替え時の詰め替え対象ボトル上での倒立時に、フィルムパウチ部に接合した特に大きなフランジ部スパウトを必要としないで、補助具をパウチスパウト首下に外面より肩状に折り曲げる事で、詰め替え対象ボトル上での剛性を付与し平衡化を確保する手段としている点が先願の他の諸案と異なる部分である。
（４）消費者は製品を購入後に本発明の補助具で包まれたパウチ上部のスパウト部を開栓し、詰め替え対象ボトル上に倒立させて乗せ込む。ポンプ部の口径同様サイズに設計されたスパウト口内に詰め替え対象ボトルを差し入れ、内容液をボトル内に流入させる。
（５）本フィルムパウチは必要最小限の薄肉フィルムで構成されて居る事より外気圧で押され内容液はボトル内に流入するがその際にフィルムパウチは底部周辺で補助具と接着されて居る事より、詰め替え対象ボトル上に倒立セットした場合、逆さに吊り下げられた形態と成り内容液がより容易に詰め替えられる構造と成って居る。
（６）補助具上部折曲げ部の持つ剛性と補助具上面の中心に位置したスパウト部とがボトル口部上で平板機能と成り平衡を保ち、安全に詰め替えが行われる仕様と成り、消費者の手放し詰め替えを可能とさせる利便性を実現する案とした。
（７）従来品のフィルムパウチ用基材の場合、フィルムにグラビア印刷等で表示印刷を行い、それをラミネート加工にする工程には必要数量確保に多くのメーター数を必要とするが、本発明の場合フィルムパウチ部は薄肉の無地品でも良く、その場合必要加飾表示は補助具部分で可能と成り、紙仕様基材の場合は少量でも可能な印刷技法が多く有り、総合的に安価で環境に優しい省資源化の形態での構成が可能と成りそれらの点も本発明の特徴と成って居る。 (1) In the refillable pouch with auxiliary tool of the present invention, the film pouch part into which the content liquid enters is not a thick multi-layer product like the conventional specification product, but has the minimum required wall thickness specification, and low density polyethylene (LLDPE) is the best. As the inner layer, it is possible to use a laminated product in which nylon (O-NY) or polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is vapor-deposited with an aluminum or silica material on the outer layer, and it is characterized by being such a thin-walled product.
(2) The film pouch made by attaching a spout to the laminated film of the above specifications has poor shape retention and strength after filling the internal solution because it is thin and soft, and it is self-supporting at the store and on the bottle when refilling. It is difficult to make the film stable, and by combining it with a box-shaped auxiliary tool from the outer surface, the strength and independence required for the film during distribution are complemented. In the case of the present invention, it is possible to create an effect of utilizing mutual functions and advantages by forming a structure formed of the pouch with an auxiliary tool.
(3) In the case of the present invention, when the bottle is inverted on the bottle to be refilled at the time of refilling, the auxiliary tool is placed under the neck of the pouch spout in a shoulder shape from the outer surface without the need for a particularly large flange spout joined to the film pouch. It differs from the other proposals of the previous application in that it is used as a means of imparting rigidity on the bottle to be refilled and ensuring equilibrium by bending it.
(4) After purchasing the product, the consumer opens the spout portion on the upper part of the pouch wrapped with the auxiliary tool of the present invention, and puts the product upside down on the bottle to be refilled. Insert the bottle to be refilled into the spout mouth, which is designed to be the same size as the diameter of the pump part, and let the content liquid flow into the bottle.
(5) Since this film pouch is composed of the minimum necessary thin film, it is pushed by the outside air pressure and the content liquid flows into the bottle, but at that time the film pouch is adhered to the auxiliary tool around the bottom. Therefore, when it is set upside down on the bottle to be refilled, it is suspended upside down and the contents liquid can be refilled more easily.
(6) The rigidity of the upper bent part of the auxiliary tool and the spout part located in the center of the upper surface of the auxiliary tool function as a flat plate on the bottle mouth to maintain equilibrium and allow consumers to refill safely. It was a plan to realize the convenience of allowing the refilling of the bottle.
(7) In the case of a conventional film pouch base material, a large number of meters is required to secure the required quantity in the process of performing display printing on the film by gravure printing or the like and laminating it. In the case of, the film pouch part may be a thin plain product, in which case the necessary decoration display is possible with the auxiliary tool part, and in the case of paper specification base material, there are many printing techniques that can be done even with a small amount, and it is generally inexpensive It is possible to construct in the form of environmentally friendly resource saving, and these points are also features of the present invention.
