Abstract

Abstract A pressure resistant bottle-shaped container having a body including panels surrounded by outer sheaths, characterized in that each panel has stress absorbing strips comprising vertexes recessed from the outer surface of the panel toward the interior of the container and bending lines formed in V shape and inverted V shape from the vertexes toward the outer sheaths. Thus, the container does not retain permanent deformation by the deformations resulting from pressure changes at the time of filling high temperature liquid content.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 131 words
A pressure resistant bottle-shaped container having a body with an outer surface including panels surrounded by outer sheaths, wherein: each panel has a longitudinal height and a transverse width, and includes stress absorbing tones comprising vertexes recessed from the outer surface of the panel toward the interior of the container and bending lines formed, in V shape and inverted V shape in mirror-image, confronting relationship from the vertexes toward the outer sheaths, said vertexes are formed on the center line of the panel along the longitudinal height of the panel, a flat recessed portion is formed between the vertexes at the center of the longitudinal height of the panel, and a depth of a recessing step between the surface of the panel and the flat portion is 1.0 mm or less.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 131 words
A pressure resistant bottle-shaped container having a body with an outer surface including panels surrounded by outer sheaths, wherein: each panel has a longitudinal height and a transverse width, and includes stress absorbing tones comprising vertexes recessed from the outer surface of the panel toward the interior of the container and bending lines formed, in V shape and inverted V shape in mirror-image, confronting relationship from the vertexes toward the outer sheaths, said vertexes are formed on the center line of the panel along the longitudinal height of the panel, a flat recessed portion is formed between the vertexes at the center of the longitudinal height of the panel, and a depth of a recessing step between the surface of the panel and the flat portion is 1.0 mm or less.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 24 words
The pressure resistant bottle-shaped container according to claim 1, wherein the area of the flat portion is one-fourth of the area of the panel.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 24 words
The pressure resistant bottle-shaped container according to claim 1, wherein the angle of the V shape of each bending lines is 30° to 140°.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 45 words
The pressure resistant bottle-shaped container according to claim 1, wherein said vertexes are disposed at trisections of the longitudinal height of the panel, and each angle of the V shape of the bending lines is 80°, and the depth of said step is 0.7 mm.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 75 words
The pressure resistant bottle-shaped container according to claim 1, wherein said flat portion is bordered by said bending lines, a second vertex is formed on the center line outside of the flat portion at each longitudinal end thereof, and a bending line intersects each second vertex, the bending lines are formed in a V shape and inverted V shape, the V shape and inverted V shape each being open toward the longitudinally adjacent outer sheath.
