Abstract

A resin made container includes a spout portion to/from which a cap can be attached/detached, a shoulder portion continuous with the spout portion, a body portion continuous with the shoulder portion and a bottom portion continuous with the body portion and disposed at a lowermost part. A decompression absorption portion provided in form of a recess in the body portion includes a bulging area protruding to the outer side of the container.

Claims (15)

1. A resin made container comprising:

a spout portion to/from which a cap can be attached/detached;

a shoulder portion continuous with the spout portion;

a body portion continuous with the shoulder portion; and

a bottom portion continuous with the body portion and disposed at a lowermost part;

wherein a decompression absorption portion provided in form of a recess in the body portion includes a bulging area protruding to the outer side of the container,

when the resin made container undergoes decompression absorption, at least one portion of the bulging area is deformed to retract inwardly so as to have an inward concave curvature on an exterior face of the bulging area in a horizontal cross-section of the bulging area,

when the resin made container is not under the decompression absorption, the bulging area is disposed without including any inward concave curvature on the exterior face of the bulging area in the horizontal cross-section of the bulging area,

wherein the bulging area includes three ridges extending in a vertical direction, and the at least one portion of the bulging area is disposed between two of the three ridges.

2. The resin made container of claim 1 , wherein a vertical sectional shape of the bulging area is curved to protrude to the outer side of the container.

3. The resin made container of claim 1 , wherein a horizontal sectional shape of the bulging area is curved to protrude to the outer side of the container.

4. The resin made container of claim 1 , wherein downwardly from the decompression absorption portion, there is provided a cushion portion that is elastically deformable in the vertical direction.

5. The resin made container of claim 1 , wherein the container has a weight/internal capacity of 50 g/L or less.

6. The resin made container of claim 1 , wherein the bulging portion has a bulging amount less than 1 mm.

7. The resin made container of claim 1 , wherein a horizontal cross-sectional shape of the bulging area has a curvature radius less than 80 mm.
