Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、フランジ付き紙製容器を成形後に加熱し、一部もしくは全体を発泡させることで、容器のフランジ下サイズを変更することを可能にした紙製容器に関するもので、内容物の充填後、超音波シール、高周波シール、ヒートシール等のシール手段によって蓋等をシールする紙製容器に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、フランジ付き紙製容器の収納部に内容物を収納後、容器と該容器の開口部を覆うように載置された蓋材とを、フランジ周縁で超音波シール、高周波シール、ヒートシール等の手段によって密封シールした紙製容器が知られている。
【0003】
内容物を充填後密封シールを必要とする場合、容器の大きさがたとえ1mmでも異なると、充填シール機のリテーナーのサイズも容器の大きさに合致したリテーナーサイズにするため、新規の金型を作製して対応しなければならず、それが包装材料の価格に償却費という形で跳ね返り、コストアップの原因の一つになっている。
また、容器サイズに合致したリテーナーサイズの金型があったとしても金型の切替えに多くの時間を要し、充填シール機の稼働率低下の原因になる。
【0004】
紙製容器のフランジ下サイズ(フランジ下の外径)がリテーナーサイズに合致していないと、蓋材をシールした際、圧逃げ等を起こしてシール不良の原因になる。特に、大きくサイズが異なったりするとリテーナーより容器が脱落する恐れもある。したがって、フランジ下サイズ=リテーナーサイズでなければならない。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は、内容物充填後、蓋材を密封シールする紙カップ、紙トレー、紙絞り容器のようなフランジ付き紙製容器に関する以上のような問題点に着目してなされたもので、容器成形後、加熱条件を変化させることにより、紙厚みがフレキシブルに変化すると共に容器のフランジ下サイズが変化することによる充填機の多様なリテーナーサイズに対応可能な紙製容器を提供することを課題とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記の課題は、以下の本発明により解決することができる。すなわち、請求項1に記載された発明は、側壁の上端縁にフランジが形成されたフランジ付き紙製容器の、フランジ直下の側壁の外面周縁に、熱により発泡する発泡層を周方向に帯状に塗布した紙製容器であって、容器成形後、加熱発泡することにより、前記帯状の発泡層を発泡させ容器のフランジ下サイズを変更可能とすることを特徴とする紙製容器である。
【0007】
このように、フランジ直下の側壁の外面周縁に、熱により発泡する発泡層を周方向に帯状に塗布した紙製容器であって、容器成形後、容器を加熱して、前記帯状の発泡層を発泡させることにより、成形金型を変えなくても、加熱条件を変化させることにより、容器のフランジ下サイズを変更することができるので、フランジ下サイズの異なる紙製容器を容易、かつ、安価に作製することができる。
【0008】
また、発泡条件の強弱等によって、フランジ下サイズを変更するだけでなく、フランジ下サイズに塗布する発泡剤の種類や塗布量を変えることによってもフランジ下サイズをコントロールすることができる。
【0009】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明の紙製容器の実施の形態を以下に詳細に説明する。
本発明の紙製容器は、例えば図1に示すように、側壁11の上端縁にフランジ12が形成されたフランジ付き紙製容器10の、フランジ直下の側壁の外面周縁に、熱により発泡する発泡層13が周方向に塗布された紙製容器である。
【0010】
紙製容器としては、紙カップ、紙トレー、紙絞り容器等フランジ付きの紙製容器が対象になる。また、プラスチック容器、金属容器にも応用可能である。
【0011】
発泡層13は、例えば、炭酸塩などの化学発泡剤からなる内部発泡薬剤の外表面がポリウレタンなどの熱可塑性樹脂皮膜で覆われた熱発泡性の発泡剤と紙パルプ繊維と前記発泡剤とをつなぐバインダーとを溶媒に混合して発泡液とし、この発泡液を成形された紙製容器のフランジ直下の側壁の外面周縁に、ロールコート法等一般的に公知の塗布方法した後、オーブン等で乾燥するで、溶媒が蒸着すると共に発泡が生じ、発泡層13が形成される。
【0012】
また、発泡層13は、前記発泡液を紙製容器の成形前(ブランク)の段階で、あらかじめフランジ直下に位置するように全面コートもしくはパターンコートし、その後紙製容器に成形し、次いで加熱して発泡させて設けても良い。
但し、成形時の熱により前記発泡液の一部もしくは全部が発泡して、成形段階で発泡層を形成する場合もある。
【0013】
発泡剤としては、上述のような炭酸塩などの化学発泡剤からなる内部発泡薬剤の外表面が、ポリウレタンなどの熱可塑性樹脂皮膜で覆われた熱発泡性の発泡剤のほか、揮発性ガスである炭化水素などの物理発泡剤からなる内部発泡薬剤の外表面が、ポリウレタンなどの熱可塑性樹脂皮膜で覆われたマイクロカプセルタイプの熱発泡性の発泡剤、ポリウレタンなどの熱可塑性樹脂に炭化水素などの揮発性ガスもしくは二酸化炭素、窒素、ヘリウムなどの高圧ガスを練り混んでなる物理発泡剤を用いても良い。
【0014】
前記化学発泡剤としては、炭酸水素ナトリウム炭酸塩などの炭酸塩のほかに、アゾ化合物、ニトロソ化合物、ヒドラジン誘導体、セミカルバジド化合物、アジド化合物、トリアゾール化合物など公知の熱分解型の化学発泡剤を使用することができる。
【0015】
また、物理発泡剤としては、イソブチレン、イソブタン、ペンタン、ヘキサン、石油エーテルなど揮発性ガスである炭化水素からなる熱膨張型の物理発泡剤を使用することができる。その際、加圧した状態で使用することが多く、前記炭化水素は液状化して液状炭化水素となっている場合がある。
【0016】
一方、上述のような外表面を覆う熱可塑性樹脂としては、アクリルニトリル、ポリウレタン、アクリル酸エステル、メタクリル酸エステルなどを使用することができる。
【0017】
そして、使用する発泡剤の種類や塗布量を変えることにより、発泡層の厚みをコントロールすることができる。
また、発泡条件を変えることで発泡層の厚みをコントロールすることができることはいうまでもない。
【0018】
【実施例】
以下に本発明の実施例をさらに具体的に説明する。
〈実施例1〉
紙製容器10として紙カップを取り上げた。
先ず、胴部を形成する胴部材として坪量270g/m2 のカップ原紙の片面に厚さ20μmの低密度ポリエチレン樹脂を塗布したポリエチレン加工紙を、また、底部を形成する底部材として坪量210g/m2 のカップ原紙の片面に厚さ20μmの低密度ポリエチレン樹脂を塗布したポリエチレン加工紙を、それぞれ準備し、一般的な紙カップ成形機を使用して、ポリエチレンを内側にした、高さ105mm、口径140mm、底径100mm、テーパー角度7.5°、フランジ下サイズ(フランジ下の外径)130mmの紙カップを成形した。
【0019】
次に、イソブチレンからなる内部発泡薬剤の外表面がポリウレタンなどの熱可塑性樹脂皮膜で覆われた熱発泡性の発泡剤と、紙パルプ繊維と前記発泡剤とをつなぐバインダーとを溶媒に混合して発泡液を作製した。
【0020】
この発泡液を先に作製した紙カップのフランジ直下の側壁の外面周縁に、ロールコート法により塗布して、溶媒を乾燥させ帯状の発泡層13を形成させ、実施例1における発泡前の紙製容器とした。
【0021】
この発泡前の紙製容器、複数個を120°Cのオーブンに入れて、それぞれ1分間、2分間、3分間加熱して、紙製容器を加熱発泡させたところ、フランジ下の外径がそれぞれ、131mm、132mm、134mmの紙カップが得られた。
【0022】
【発明の効果】
上記のように、容器のフランジ下サイズの変更は、従来の方法では、容器成形用金型を変更したり用紙の坪量を変更したりすることで都度対応していたのに対し、本発明の紙製容器においては、フランジ下サイズが5mm程度までのサイズ変更であれば、容器成形後、熱発泡させるのみで対応可能となり、コストダウン、納期短縮が可能になる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a paper container that can change the size under the flange of the container by heating the flanged paper container after molding and foaming a part or the whole, and after filling the contents The present invention relates to a paper container that seals a lid or the like by a sealing means such as ultrasonic sealing, high-frequency sealing, or heat sealing.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, after the contents are stored in the storage portion of the flanged paper container, the container and the lid placed so as to cover the opening of the container are ultrasonically sealed, high-frequency seal, heat seal, etc. at the periphery of the flange A paper container hermetically sealed by the above means is known.
[0003]
When a hermetic seal is required after filling the contents, if the container size is different even by 1 mm, the retainer size of the filling and sealing machine will be the retainer size that matches the container size. It has to be made and dealt with, and this has bounced back to the price of the packaging material in the form of amortization, which is one of the causes of cost increase.
Moreover, even if there is a retainer-sized mold that matches the container size, it takes a lot of time to switch the mold, causing a reduction in the operating rate of the filling and sealing machine.
[0004]
If the under-flange size (outer diameter under the flange) of the paper container does not match the retainer size, when the lid is sealed, a pressure escape or the like occurs, causing a seal failure. In particular, if the size is significantly different, the container may fall off the retainer. Therefore, the size under the flange = retainer size must be satisfied.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention has been made paying attention to the above-mentioned problems relating to a paper container with a flange such as a paper cup, a paper tray, and a paper squeeze container for sealing and sealing a lid material after filling the contents. It is an object of the present invention to provide a paper container that can respond to various retainer sizes of a filling machine by changing the heating condition so that the paper thickness changes flexibly and the size under the flange of the container changes.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The above problems can be solved by the following present invention. That is, in the invention described in claim 1, the foamed layer that is foamed by heat is formed in a band shape in the circumferential direction on the outer peripheral edge of the side wall immediately below the flange of the flanged paper container in which the flange is formed on the upper edge of the side wall. An applied paper container, wherein the strip-shaped foam layer is foamed by heating and foaming after forming the container, and the size under the flange of the container can be changed.
[0007]
In this way, a paper container in which a foam layer that is foamed by heat is applied in the form of a belt in the circumferential direction on the outer peripheral edge of the side wall immediately below the flange, and after forming the container, the container is heated to By foaming, the size under the flange of the container can be changed by changing the heating conditions without changing the molding die, so paper containers with different sizes under the flange can be easily and inexpensively. Can be produced.
[0008]
Moreover, not only the size under the flange but also the size under the flange can be controlled not only by changing the size under the flange but also by changing the type and amount of the foaming agent applied to the size under the flange.
[0009]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiments of the paper container of the present invention will be described in detail below.
For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the paper container of the present invention is foamed by heat at the outer peripheral edge of the side wall immediately below the flange of the flanged paper container 10 in which the flange 12 is formed on the upper edge of the side wall 11. It is a paper container in which the layer 13 is applied in the circumferential direction.
[0010]
Examples of the paper container include flanged paper containers such as a paper cup, a paper tray, and a paper squeeze container. It can also be applied to plastic containers and metal containers.
[0011]
For example, the foamed layer 13 includes a thermally foamable foaming agent in which an outer surface of an internal foaming agent made of a chemical foaming agent such as carbonate is covered with a thermoplastic resin film such as polyurethane, a paper pulp fiber, and the foaming agent. The binder to be connected is mixed with a solvent to obtain a foaming liquid, and a generally known coating method such as a roll coating method is applied to the outer peripheral edge of the side wall immediately below the flange of the paper container formed with this foaming liquid. By drying, the solvent is deposited and foaming occurs, and the foam layer 13 is formed.
[0012]
Further, the foam layer 13 is pre-coated (patterned) so that the foamed liquid is positioned immediately under the flange before forming the paper container (blank), then formed into a paper container, and then heated. It may be provided by foaming.
However, some or all of the foaming liquid may foam due to heat during molding, and a foamed layer may be formed in the molding stage.
[0013]
As a foaming agent, the outer surface of an internal foaming agent made of a chemical foaming agent such as carbonate as described above is a foaming agent covered with a thermoplastic resin film such as polyurethane, or a volatile gas. A microcapsule type thermal foaming foaming agent whose outer surface of an internal foaming agent made of a physical foaming agent such as a hydrocarbon is covered with a thermoplastic resin film such as polyurethane, a hydrocarbon such as polyurethane on a thermoplastic resin such as polyurethane Alternatively, a physical foaming agent obtained by kneading and mixing high-pressure gas such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, helium or the like may be used.
[0014]
As the chemical foaming agent, in addition to carbonates such as sodium hydrogen carbonate, known pyrolytic chemical foaming agents such as azo compounds, nitroso compounds, hydrazine derivatives, semicarbazide compounds, azide compounds, triazole compounds are used. be able to.
[0015]
In addition, as the physical foaming agent, a thermal expansion type physical foaming agent made of hydrocarbon which is a volatile gas such as isobutylene, isobutane, pentane, hexane, petroleum ether or the like can be used. In that case, it is often used in a pressurized state, and the hydrocarbon may be liquefied to become a liquid hydrocarbon.
[0016]
On the other hand, as the thermoplastic resin covering the outer surface as described above, acrylonitrile, polyurethane, acrylic acid ester, methacrylic acid ester or the like can be used.
[0017]
And the thickness of a foamed layer is controllable by changing the kind and application amount of a foaming agent to be used.
Needless to say, the thickness of the foamed layer can be controlled by changing the foaming conditions.
[0018]
【Example】
Examples of the present invention will be described more specifically below.
<Example 1>
A paper cup was taken up as the paper container 10.
First, a polyethylene processed paper obtained by applying a low-density polyethylene resin having a thickness of 20 μm on one side of a base paper of a cup having a basis weight of 270 g / m 2 as a body member forming the body portion, and a basis weight of 210 g as a bottom member forming the bottom portion. / M 2 cup processed paper, polyethylene processed paper coated with 20 μm thick low density polyethylene resin on one side, each prepared, using a general paper cup molding machine, polyethylene inside, 105 mm height, A paper cup having a diameter of 140 mm, a bottom diameter of 100 mm, a taper angle of 7.5 °, and a flange undersize (outer diameter under the flange) of 130 mm was formed.
[0019]
Next, a thermal foaming foaming agent whose outer surface of the internal foaming agent made of isobutylene is covered with a thermoplastic resin film such as polyurethane, and a binder that joins the paper pulp fiber and the foaming agent are mixed in a solvent. A foaming liquid was prepared.
[0020]
The foamed liquid is applied to the outer peripheral edge of the side wall immediately below the flange of the paper cup prepared earlier by a roll coating method, and the solvent is dried to form a band-shaped foamed layer 13. The paper container before foaming in Example 1 It was.
[0021]
When the paper containers before foaming are placed in a 120 ° C oven and heated for 1 minute, 2 minutes and 3 minutes, respectively, the paper containers are heated and foamed. , 131 mm, 132 mm, and 134 mm paper cups were obtained.
[0022]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, the change in the size under the flange of the container has been dealt with each time by changing the mold for forming the container or changing the basis weight of the paper in the conventional method. In the case of a paper container, if the size under the flange is changed to about 5 mm, it can be dealt with by simply performing thermal foaming after the container is formed, thereby reducing the cost and shortening the delivery time.
