It is also possible to accommodating these non article. The supplement or tablet is typically a tablet or capsule, but may be in other forms such as a jelly, granule, powder or liquid.
[0013] キャップ本体への上蓋の係合構造は、例えば、キャップ本体の上端部の外周面と 前記上蓋の内周面とに互いに螺合するねじを形成して、これにより上蓋をキャップ本 体に装着できるようすれば良 ヽ (所謂スクリューキャップ方式)。このような上蓋構造に よれば、商品（ボトル飲料)の流通途上で不要に上蓋が外れてしまうアクシデントをよ り確実に防ぐことが出来る。ただし、上蓋の係合構造は、これに限られるものではなく 、他の構造を採ることも可能である（後述の各実施形態においても同様)。 [0013] The engagement structure of the upper lid to the cap main body includes, for example, a screw that is screwed to the outer peripheral surface of the upper end portion of the cap main body and the inner peripheral surface of the upper lid, and thereby the upper lid is connected to the main body of the cap. If it can be attached to the camera, it is good (so-called screw cap method). In such an upper lid structure According to this, it is possible to more reliably prevent an accident in which the upper lid is unnecessarily removed during the distribution of the product (bottle beverage). However, the engagement structure of the upper lid is not limited to this, and other structures can be adopted (the same applies to each embodiment described later).
[0014] 上記本発明の飲料キャップでは、収納凹部を、錠剤を収容可能なように当該錠剤 の形状に対応した形状に成形された陥凹部およびこの陥凹部の周囲に張り出したフ ランジ部を含む硬質成形材と、この硬質成形材の前記フランジ部に貼着されて前記 陥凹部を封止するフィルム材とにより個別包装（例えば PTP (Press Through Package )包装)された錠剤の、少なくとも前記陥凹部を収納可能な大きさとする場合がある。  [0014] In the beverage cap of the present invention, the storage recess includes a recess formed in a shape corresponding to the shape of the tablet so that the tablet can be stored, and a flange portion protruding around the recess. At least the recessed portion of a tablet individually packaged (for example, PTP (Press Through Package) packaging) by a hard molded material and a film material that is adhered to the flange portion of the hard molded material and seals the recessed portion. May be a size that can be stored.
[0015] 飲料の付属物品として、錠剤を付属させるためである。例えば、飲料にサプリメント 等の栄養補助食品 (機能性食品)や薬剤等の錠剤を ヽゎゆるおまけとして付加する ことが出来る。  [0015] This is because a tablet is attached as an accessory of a beverage. For example, dietary supplements (functional foods) such as supplements and tablets such as drugs can be added to beverages as casual bonuses.
[0016] また、かかるキャップ構造では、収納凹部の底面より上方に突出する突起部を備え るようにしても良い。このような突起部を設ければ、上記個別包装された錠剤を容易 に取り出すことが出来る。具体的には、個別包装された錠剤を、陥凹部を下に向けた 姿勢で上記飲料キャップ (収納凹部）に収納しておく。そして、上蓋を開け、個別包装 された錠剤を収納凹部の底面に向け押し下げれば、上記突起部が個別包装の陥凹 部に当接して錠剤を押し上げ、錠剤が上記フィルム材を破って外部に押し出されるこ ととなる力ら、錠剤を個別包装から容易に取り出すことが出来る。  [0016] In addition, such a cap structure may be provided with a protrusion protruding upward from the bottom surface of the storage recess. If such a protrusion is provided, the individually packaged tablets can be easily taken out. Specifically, the individually packaged tablets are stored in the beverage cap (storage recess) with the recessed portion facing downward. When the upper lid is opened and the individually packaged tablets are pushed down toward the bottom surface of the storage recesses, the protrusions abut against the recesses of the individual packages to push up the tablets, and the tablets break the film material to the outside. Tablets can be easily removed from individual packaging because of the force that will be pushed out.
[0017] 一方、本発明の錠剤保持具は、本発明に係る飲料キャップの物品収納部に上記の ように個別包装された錠剤を収容する場合に当該錠剤に装着する器具であって、上 記個別包装された錠剤のフィルム材の表面を覆う平板状の保持具本体板と、この保 持具本体板に個別包装された錠剤を固定する固定手段とを備え、保持具本体板は [0017] On the other hand, the tablet holder of the present invention is a device to be mounted on a tablet when the individually packaged tablet as described above is stored in the article storage part of the beverage cap according to the present invention.

[0018] カゝかる本発明の錠剤保持具は、特に、個別包装された錠剤をロボットアームで把持 して本発明のキャップに装填する場合に有効なものである。すなわち、個別包装 (PT P包装)された錠剤をロボットアームで把持して本発明のキャップに装填しょうとする 場合、 PTP包装 (硬質成形材)が軟らかく（橈んでしまって)アームで掴むことが難し い事態が生じ得る。このような場合に、上記本発明の錠剤保持具を個別包装された 錠剤に予め装着しておけば、平板状の（例えば肉厚の榭脂板力 なる Z剛性のある[0018] The tablet holder of the present invention to be produced is particularly effective when the individually packaged tablets are gripped by a robot arm and loaded into the cap of the present invention. In other words, when an individually wrapped (PTP packaged) tablet is gripped with a robot arm and loaded into the cap of the present invention, the PTP package (hard molding material) may be soft (kneaded) and gripped with the arm. Difficult situations can occur. In such a case, the tablet holder of the present invention was individually packaged. If pre-attached to the tablet, it will have a flat plate shape (for example, Z
)保持具本体板をアームが掴むことで錠剤を把持することが出来るから、ロボットァー ムによって本発明の飲料キャップに容易かつより確実に個別包装された錠剤を装填 することが可能となる。 ) Since the arm can grip the holder body plate, the tablet can be gripped, so that it is possible to easily and more reliably load the individually packed tablets into the beverage cap of the present invention by the robot arm.
[0019] なお、当該保持具本体板は、錠剤を取り出す側の包装面に沿って配置されるが、 当該保持具本体板には上述のように錠剤が通過可能な錠剤取出孔を設けてあるか ら、保持具本体板を外さなくても錠剤の取り出しは可能である。  [0019] It should be noted that the holder body plate is disposed along the packaging surface on the side of taking out the tablet, and the holder body plate is provided with a tablet extraction hole through which the tablet can pass as described above. Therefore, it is possible to take out the tablet without removing the holder body plate.
[0020] 保持具本体板に個別包装された錠剤を固定する固定手段は、特に問わない。例え ば、上記フランジ部を把持する爪を設けても良いし、接着や溶着等その他の手段に よることち可會である。  [0020] The fixing means for fixing the individually packaged tablets on the holder main body plate is not particularly limited. For example, a claw for gripping the flange portion may be provided, or it may be flexible by other means such as adhesion or welding.
[0021] また、上記錠剤取出孔の内側には、破断可能にかつ未破断の状態では錠剤の通 過が不可能となるように設置された封止片をさらに設けても良い。このような器具構造 によれば、個別包装力 錠剤が不用意または不正に取り出されるような事態を防ぐこ とが出来る。  [0021] Further, a sealing piece may be further provided on the inner side of the tablet extraction hole so that the tablet can be broken and cannot pass through the tablet when it is not broken. According to such a device structure, it is possible to prevent a situation in which an individual packaging force tablet is inadvertently or illegally taken out.
[0022] 本発明の飲料キャップでは、前記天板部の上面に貼着され前記収納凹部を閉塞 する封止フィルムを備えるようにしても良い。このような封止フィルムを備えれば、例え ば空気や湿気との接触を嫌う物品を収納凹部に収容して良好な状態に維持すること が出来る。  [0022] The beverage cap of the present invention may include a sealing film that is attached to the top surface of the top plate portion and closes the storage recess. If such a sealing film is provided, for example, articles that dislike contact with air or moisture can be housed in the housing recess and kept in a good state.
[0023] また、上記封止フィルムの少なくとも一部が、前記上蓋に固定された構造としても良 い。このようなキャップ構造によれば、上蓋を開けたときにこの上蓋の開放操作に伴つ て封止フィルムも同時に開放されるようにすることができ、利便性を高めることが出来 る。  [0023] Further, at least a part of the sealing film may be fixed to the upper lid. According to such a cap structure, when the upper lid is opened, the sealing film can be opened simultaneously with the opening operation of the upper lid, and convenience can be improved.
[0024] さらに、収納凹部の内面と、前記天板部上面の収納凹部の周囲部とに亘つて連続 して広がるように設置された第一の封止フィルムと、前記天板部の上部に張り渡され るように設けられて収納凹部の周囲部において第一の封止フィルムと接合されて当 該第一の封止フィルムと協働して収納凹部内に収容された物品を封止する第二の封 止フイノレムとを備えるようにしても良 、。  [0024] Furthermore, a first sealing film installed so as to continuously spread over the inner surface of the storage recess and the peripheral portion of the storage recess on the top surface of the top plate portion, and an upper portion of the top plate portion It is provided so as to be stretched, and is joined to the first sealing film at the periphery of the storage recess and seals the articles stored in the storage recess in cooperation with the first sealing film. It is also possible to provide a second sealing Finolem.
[0025] このようなキャップ構造によれば、例えば空気や湿気との接触を嫌う物品を収納凹 部に収容し、この物品を第一の封止フィルムと第二の封止フィルムとによって包み込 むことでより確実に当該物品を良好な状態に保持することが出来る。 [0025] According to such a cap structure, for example, an article that dislikes contact with air or moisture can be recessed. It is possible to hold the article in a good state more reliably by wrapping the article with the first sealing film and the second sealing film.
[0026] このキャップ構造においても、前記封止フィルムを備えたキャップと同様に、第二の 封止フィルムの少なくとも一部が上蓋に固定された構造としても良ぐこれによれば上 蓋を開けるだけで容易に封止フィルム (第二の封止フィルム)を開放することが可能と なる。  [0026] In this cap structure, similarly to the cap provided with the sealing film, a structure in which at least a part of the second sealing film is fixed to the upper lid may be used. According to this, the upper lid is opened. It becomes possible to easily open the sealing film (second sealing film) only by this.
[0027] 前記収納凹部は、メモリカードと略同一の平面形状を有する場合がある。収納凹部 にメモリカードを収納して当該ボトル飲料にこれを付属させることを可能とするためで ある。  [0027] The storage recess may have a plane shape substantially the same as that of the memory card. This is because it is possible to store the memory card in the storage recess and attach it to the bottle beverage.
[0028] 収納凹部に収納するメモリカードとしては、例えばミニ SD (mini SD)やマイクロ SD、  [0028] As the memory card stored in the storage recess, for example, mini SD, mini SD,
(いずれも商標または商品名）を使用することができ、当該メモリカードの外形形状に 合せて（当該メモリカードを収納できるように）収納凹部を形成すれば良い。尚、本発 明に言うメモリカードは、これらのメモリカードに限定されるものではなぐ半導体メモリ (フラッシュメモリ）を内蔵した各種のメモリカードが含まれる。また、メモリカードだけで なぐ USBメモリ等の情報記録媒体や、メモリカードアダプタ (メモリカードリーダ)その 他の各種の小型電子機器などを収納できるようにしても良い。さらに、収納凹部は、 必ずしも上記のように、収容するメモリカードの外形形状に一致させる必要はなく（大 き 、或 、は異なる形状であっても良 、)その形状を問わな 、。  (Both are trademarks or trade names), and a storage recess may be formed in accordance with the outer shape of the memory card (so that the memory card can be stored). The memory cards referred to in the present invention include various types of memory cards with built-in semiconductor memory (flash memory) that are not limited to these memory cards. In addition, it may be possible to store an information recording medium such as a USB memory, a memory card adapter (memory card reader), and other various small electronic devices. Further, as described above, the storage recess does not necessarily have to match the outer shape of the memory card to be stored (the shape may be large or different), regardless of its shape.
[0029] また、力かる本発明の飲料キャップでは、上蓋の内面に、当該上蓋の閉止状態に おいて収納凹部に収納されたメモリカードに当接して当該メモリカードを押圧する弹 性部材を設けても良い。  [0029] Further, in the beverage cap according to the present invention, an elastic member is provided on the inner surface of the upper lid so as to contact the memory card stored in the storage recess when the upper lid is closed and press the memory card. May be.
[0030] このような弾性部材を設ければ、収納凹部と収納したメモリカードとの間、あるいは 上蓋とメモリカードとの間に隙間があっても収納したメモリカードが弾性部材により押 えられるから、カード収納凹部内でメモリカードが動く（がたつく）ことがなくなる。した 力 Sつて、例えば提供する飲料商品のうちの一部についてのみメモリカードを入れて所 謂当り外れの別を作る場合に、商品の購入者がキャップ部分を振ることによって当り と外れ (メモリカードが入っている力否力 を判別できてしまうような事態を回避すること が出来る。 [0031] また、上記のような弾性部材は、メモリカードを収納する場合に限られず、他の物品 を収納する場合にもこれを設けて良 、。 If such an elastic member is provided, the stored memory card is pressed by the elastic member even if there is a gap between the storage recess and the stored memory card or between the upper lid and the memory card. The memory card will not move (rattle) in the card storage recess. For example, when a memory card is inserted into only a part of the beverage product to be provided to make a so-called hit / discovery, the purchaser of the product shakes the cap part (memory card). It is possible to avoid a situation in which the power or non-compliance that contains can be determined. [0031] The elastic member as described above is not limited to storing a memory card, and may be provided when storing other articles.
[0032] さらに、上記弾性部材に代え、またはこれと共に、収納凹部の側縁部から当該収納 凹部の内方に向け略水平に張り出してメモリカード (または他の物品）の上面部を押 さえる 1以上の係止突起を設け、この係止突起によって収納凹部に収納したメモリ力 ード (または他の物品）を押さえるようにしても良い。  [0032] Further, instead of or together with the elastic member, the upper surface of the memory card (or other article) is pressed by projecting substantially horizontally from the side edge of the storage recess toward the inside of the storage recess 1 The above-described locking projections may be provided, and the memory force (or other article) stored in the storage recess may be pressed by the locking projections.
[0033] 収納凹部は、収容したメモリカードを取り出すため当該メモリカードの側面に触れる ことを可能とする少なくとも 1つの凹部をその側縁部に有するようにしても良 、。  [0033] The storage recess may have at least one recess on its side edge that allows the side of the memory card to be touched in order to take out the stored memory card.
[0034] このような構造によれば、収納凹部がメモリカードの形状に形成され、当該収納凹 部に丁度隙間なくメモリカードが収まる場合に、収納したメモリカードを取り出しやすく することが出来る。なお、メモリカード以外の物品をちようど収納するように当該物品 の形状に収納凹部を形成した場合にも、同様に上記凹部を形成しても良い。  [0034] According to such a structure, the storage concave portion is formed in the shape of a memory card, and when the memory card fits in the storage concave portion without any gap, the stored memory card can be easily taken out. In addition, when the storage recess is formed in the shape of the article so as to store the article other than the memory card, the recess may be formed similarly.
[0035] また、上記飲料キャップでは、上蓋の内面に二次元コードまたは無線タグを備える ことがある。無線タグとは、 RFID (Radio Frequency IdentificationZ電波方式認識）、 ICタグ、無線 ICタグなどと称される、近接無線交信を使用する非接触型の認識装置 である。これら二次元コードや無線タグへは、例えば、シリアル番号、ボトル内に入れ る飲料や物品収納部に収容する物品に関する賞味期限、生産地、原材料、用法、効 能、品質、注意書きその他の情報を格納しておくことが出来る。また、プレミアム (景 品）ポイントや認証データ、金銭金額データ等を景品として上記二次元コードまたは 無線タグに格納しておくことにより、当該上蓋な 、し飲料キャップ自体を各種チケット や電子マネーとして機能させることも可能である。  [0035] The beverage cap may be provided with a two-dimensional code or a wireless tag on the inner surface of the upper lid. The wireless tag is a non-contact type recognition device using proximity wireless communication, which is called RFID (Radio Frequency Identification Z radio wave system recognition), an IC tag, a wireless IC tag, or the like. These two-dimensional codes and wireless tags include, for example, serial numbers, expiration dates, production locations, raw materials, usage, efficacy, quality, precautionary notes, and other information related to beverages in bottles and items to be stored in the product storage. Can be stored. In addition, by storing premium (premium) points, authentication data, monetary amount data, etc. as premiums in the above two-dimensional code or wireless tag, the upper lid and the beverage cap itself function as various tickets and electronic money. It is also possible to make it.
[0036] さらに、商品の管理者 (製造者'販売者等)側が飲料キャップに収納する物品に関 する情報を上記無線タグに格納しておき、これを物品収納部を開封することなぐ確 認できるようにすることも可能である。より具体的には、例えば、本発明の飲料キヤッ プを使用して飲料商品を提供する場合に、それらのうちの一部の商品にのみ物品を 景品として入れる（当たり ·はずれを作る）ような利用形態が考えられる。この場合には 、物品（景品）を物品収納部 (収納凹部）に入れ、外部から物品が入っていることを確 認することが出来な 、ように前記上蓋等で封をする必要がある。景品が入って!/、る商 品（"当たり"）のみを商品の購入者が選択することを防ぐためである。 [0036] Further, it is confirmed that the product manager (manufacturer's seller, etc.) stores information on the articles stored in the beverage cap in the wireless tag and opens the article storage section. It is also possible to make it possible. More specifically, for example, when a beverage product is provided using the beverage cap of the present invention, an article is given as a free gift (making a hit or miss) to only some of those products. Possible usage forms. In this case, it is necessary to put the article (prize) into the article storage section (storage recess) and seal it with the upper lid or the like so that it is not possible to confirm that the article has entered from the outside. Comes with a prize! This is to prevent the purchaser of the product from selecting only the product ("winning").
[0037] ところが、商品の管理者は、例えば一定の割合 (確率)で景品を入れる製造管理を 行う等の理由から、どの商品個体に景品が入っている力、あるいは景品が複数種類 に亘る場合には何れの景品が入っているの力 景品を装填して商品の製造を完了し た後に確認する必要が生じることがあり得る。このような場合に、無線タグに景品に関 する情報 (景品が入っている力、あるいは景品として何が入っているか等）を格納して おけば、当該タグをリーダで読むことで容易にこれらの情報を得ることが出来る。なお 、上記無線タグや二次元コードに格納する情報としては、これら以外にも様々なもの であって良い。  [0037] However, the manager of the product, for example, for managing the production of putting in a premium at a certain rate (probability), etc. It may be necessary to check which prizes are in the box after loading the prizes and completing the product manufacture. In such a case, if information related to the prize (such as the power of the prize or what is included as a prize) is stored in the wireless tag, it can be easily read by reading the tag with a reader. Information can be obtained. The information stored in the wireless tag or the two-dimensional code may be various other than these.
[0038] 本発明に係る飲料ボトルは、物品収納部（または収納凹部）に物品を収納した上記 いずれかの飲料キャップと、飲料を収容可能なボトルとを備えたものである。また、本 発明に係る飲料は、当該飲料ボトルに飲料を収納すると共に、当該ボトルの開口を 前記 、ずれかの飲料キャップにより閉塞したものである。  [0038] A beverage bottle according to the present invention includes any one of the above-described beverage caps in which an article is stored in an article storage section (or storage recess), and a bottle that can store a drink. Moreover, the beverage according to the present invention is one in which the beverage is stored in the beverage bottle and the opening of the bottle is closed with the beverage cap.
[0039] さらに、本発明の飲料ボトル用物品収納具は、飲料ボトルのキャップに装着して、前 記本発明の飲料キャップと同様に当該飲料ボトルに様々な物品を付属させることを 可能とするものである。すなわち、前記本発明の飲料キャップでは、従来の飲料キヤ ップ自体の構造を変更して物品を収納可能としたが、本発明の飲料ボトル用物品収 納具は、従来のキャップ構造を変更することなぐこれを利用して物品を付属させるこ とを可能としたものである。  [0039] Furthermore, the beverage bottle article storage device of the present invention can be attached to a cap of a beverage bottle and can attach various articles to the beverage bottle in the same manner as the beverage cap of the present invention. Is. That is, in the beverage cap of the present invention, the structure of the conventional beverage cap itself can be changed to store articles, but the article storage device for beverage bottles of the present invention changes the conventional cap structure. This makes it possible to attach items using this.
[0040] 具体的には、本発明の飲料ボトル用物品収納具は、内部に物品を収納し、かつ、 飲料ボトルの開口を閉塞する飲料キャップに被せて装着することが可能な飲料ボトル 用物品収納具であって、当該飲料キャップの少なくとも上端部を収容する嵌合穴を 有して当該飲料キャップに被せるように嵌合可能な支持部と、この支持部の上部に 備えられて、前記ボトル内に収容される飲料とは別の物品を収納可能な物品収納部 とを有する。  [0040] Specifically, the beverage bottle article storage device of the present invention is an article for a beverage bottle that can be placed on a beverage cap that houses the article and closes the opening of the beverage bottle. A container having a fitting hole for accommodating at least an upper end portion of the beverage cap and capable of being fitted so as to cover the beverage cap; and an upper portion of the support portion, and the bottle And an article storage unit capable of storing an article different from the beverage contained therein.
[0041] かかる飲料ボトル用物品収納具は、飲料キャップに対して着脱自在に構成しても良 いし、取り外すことが出来ないよう飲料キャップに固定するようにしても構わない。固 定式とする場合には、例えば接着や溶着、圧入等の方法により当該物品収納具を飲 料キャップに固定すれば良い。 [0041] The beverage bottle article storage device may be configured to be detachable from the beverage cap, or may be fixed to the beverage cap so that it cannot be removed. In the case of a fixed type, for example, the article storage device is drunk by a method such as adhesion, welding, or press fitting. Fix it to the cap.
[0042] 一方、着脱自在とするには、嵌合穴を単に飲料キャップに被せるだけの構造でも良 いが、当該物品収納具と飲料キャップとの間の相対回転を阻止する構造を上記嵌合 穴の内面に施しても良い。このような構造を設ければ、当該物品収納具を飲料キヤッ プに装着した状態であっても、これを回転させることでより確実に飲料ボトルのキヤッ プを開けることが可能となる。また、上記物品収納具は、飲料キャップの被せられる構 造であるからキャップより外径が大きぐしたがって、飲料キャップを単に回転させて 開栓を行って 、た従来と比較して飲料キャップをより容易に (小さな力で）回転させて 開けることが出来る利点もある。  [0042] On the other hand, in order to be detachable, a structure in which the fitting hole is simply covered with the beverage cap may be used. However, the structure for preventing the relative rotation between the article storage device and the beverage cap is fitted. It may be applied to the inner surface of the hole. If such a structure is provided, the cap of the beverage bottle can be opened more reliably by rotating it even when the article storage device is mounted on the beverage cap. In addition, since the article storage device has a structure in which a beverage cap is put on, the outer diameter is larger than that of the cap. Therefore, the beverage cap is simply rotated to open the beverage cap. There is also an advantage that it can be opened easily by rotating (with a small force).
[0043] 相対回転を阻止する具体的な構造としては、例えば、飲料キャップの外周面に形 成された垂直方向に延在する凹凸筋に係合 (嵌合)する凹凸を形成する。この凹凸 は、嵌合穴の内面に垂直に延在するように設ける。また、摩擦 (摩擦係数)の大きな 高摩擦材料 (例えばゴムやシリコン等）を嵌合穴の内面に備えることとしても良い。  [0043] As a specific structure for preventing the relative rotation, for example, an unevenness engaging (fitting) with an uneven muscle extending in the vertical direction formed on the outer peripheral surface of the beverage cap is formed. The unevenness is provided so as to extend perpendicularly to the inner surface of the fitting hole. Further, a high friction material (for example, rubber or silicon) having a large friction (friction coefficient) may be provided on the inner surface of the fitting hole.
[0044] また、本発明の物品収納具においても、物品収納部の構造として、前記本発明に 係る飲料キャップと同様の各構造を採ることが出来る。  [0044] In the article storage device of the present invention, the same structure as the beverage cap according to the present invention can be adopted as the structure of the article storage section.
[0045] 本発明によれば、ボトルに収納された飲料商品に一層販売促進が可能な景品とし て様々な物品を付属させることが可能となる。  [0045] According to the present invention, it is possible to attach various articles as premiums that can be further promoted to beverage products stored in bottles.
