1. A can lid comprising: a can lid body having an opening region to be open; and a tab fixed to said can lid body, wherein said tab comprises a pull-up section on which a user's finger is hooked in his/her opening action, a front end abutting the opening region, and a read end opposite the front end and extending in a direction distal from the opening region, the rear end comprising the pull-up section; and said can lid body comprises a finger inserting recess, the entire finger inserting recess positioned behind the pull-up section, and a guide section formed in the finger inserting recess for guiding said user's finger to a center of said pull-up section, wherein said guide section comprises a guide plane having a width gradually narrowing toward said center of said pull-up section, and two surfaces in a plane that is stepped relative to the guide plane, the two surfaces extending such that a distance between said two surfaces is graudually narrowing toward said center of said pull-up section, the distance between the two surfaces corresponding to the width of the guide plane.
2. A can lid according to claim 1 , wherein said guide plane is sloped and defining a triangular shape with an apex located proximal to said center of said pull-up section and a guide wall connecting to each oblique line of said guide plane.
3. A can lid comprising a can lid body having an opening region to be open upon being opened and a tab fixed to said can lid body, wherein said tab comprises: a pull-up section on which a user's finger is hooked in his/her opening action, a front end abutting the opening region, and a rear end opposite the front end and extending in a direction distal from the opening region, the rear end comprising the pull-up section; and said can lid body comprises a finger inserting recess, the entire finger inserting recess positioned behind the pull-up section, and a positioning section formed in the finger inserting recess for positioning said user's finger to a center of said pull-up section, the can lid body further comprises a guide section formed in the finger inserting recess for guiding said user's finger to a center of said pull-up section, wherein said guide section comprise: a guide plane having a width gradually narrowing toward said center of said pull-up section; and two surfaces in a plane that is stepped relative to the guide plane, the two surfaces extending such that a distance between said two surfaces is graudually narrowing toward said center of said pull-up section, the distance between the two surfaces corresponding to the width of the guide plane.
4. A can lid according to claim 3 , wherein said positioning section is a recessed portion formed in an area adjacent to said center of said pull-up section.
5. A can lid according to claim 3 , wherein said guide plane is sloped and defining a triangular shape having an apex located proximal to said center of said pull-up section and a guide wall connecting to each oblique line of said guide plane.
6. A can lid according to claim 1 , wherein said pull-up section is formed into a linear shape.
7. A can container comprising a can lid according to claim 1 .
