Hinge cap and hinge cap set
A hinge cap formed by an injection-molding comprises an inner lid capable of being attached to a container body, a hinge, and an outer lid that is connected to the inner lid by the hinge to open and close the cap. The inner lid includes a claw portion. The outer lid includes a tubular outer wall portion and a plurality of convex portions as undercut portions and a plurality of concave portions. One convex portion and a concave portion adjacent to the one convex portion form an engaging portion capable of being engaged with the claw portion. An adjacent convex portion adjacent to the engaging portion and a concave portion adjacent to the adjacent convex portion form a mold pressing portion.
1. A hinge cap formed by an injection-molding comprising:
an inner lid capable of being attached to a container body;
a hinge; and
an outer lid that is connected to the inner lid by the hinge to open and close the cap, wherein
the inner lid includes:
a tubular inner wall portion capable of being attached to a mouth portion of the container body;
an inner closing plate portion which protrudes from an inner surface of the inner wall portion for closing one side of the inner wall portion and is formed with a passage port; and
a claw portion protruding outwardly in a radial direction from a surface of the inner closing plate portion,
the outer lid includes:
a tubular outer wall portion;
an outer closing plate portion for closing a first axial end of the outer wall portion; and
a plurality of convex portions as undercut portions and a plurality of concave portions which are aligned alternately in an axial direction of the tubular outer wall portion on an inner surface of the outer wall portion,
the pluralities of convex portions and concave portions are arranged such that a first convex portion and a first concave portion adjacent to the first convex portion form an engaging portion capable of being engaged with the claw portion in a closed state of the outer lid,
a second convex portion adjacent to the engaging portion and a second concave portion adjacent to the second convex portion form a mold pressing portion, and
the outer wall portion has through-holes formed on both sides of the engaging portion.
2. The hinge cap according to claim 1 , wherein
a second axial end of the outer wall portion has an opening, and the first convex portion of the engaging portion is closest to the opening among the plurality of convex portions.
3. The hinge cap according to claim 1 , wherein
the first and second concave portions and the first and second convex portions are aligned in a single row in the axial direction of the outer wall portion, and are formed on an opposite side of the outer wall portion relative to the hinge.
4. The hinge cap according to claim 1 , wherein
each of the through-holes is an elongated hole extending in the axial direction of the outer wall portion.
5. A hinge cap set comprising:
the hinge cap according to claim 1 ; and
a packing sheet that enhances airtightness in a closed state of the hinge cap, wherein
the inner closing plate portion includes:
an inner closing plate body connected to the inner wall portion; and
a nozzle protruding from the inner closing plate body,
the outer lid includes a packing sheet support portion, and
the packing sheet has elasticity to provide tight contact with a distal end of the nozzle.
6. A hinge cap with a body formed by an injection-molding comprising:
a body having an open end with a claw portion provided on a rim of the open end;
a hinge provided on the rim at a position opposite to the claw portion; and
a lid connected to the body through the hinge to open and close the open end of the body, wherein
the lid includes:
a tubular outer wall portion;
an outer closing plate portion for closing one side of the outer wall portion; and
a plurality of convex portions as undercut portions and a plurality of concave portions which are aligned alternately in an axial direction of the tubular outer wall portion on an inner surface of the outer wall portion,
the pluralities of convex portions and concave portions are arranged such that a first convex portion and a first concave portion adjacent to the first convex portion form an engaging portion capable of being engaged with the claw portion in a closed state of the lid,
a second convex portion adjacent to the engaging portion and a second concave portion adjacent to the second convex portion form a mold pressing portion, and
the outer wall portion has through-holes formed on both sides of the engaging portion.
