Abstract

Provided is a double-walled container (1), which includes an outer layer body (2) and an inner layer body (3). A single adhesive strip (4) is disposed between the outer layer body (2) and the inner layer body (3) in a manner such that the adhesive strip (4) extends along a center axis (C). The outer layer body (2) is provided with a single ambient air introduction hole (2d). The outer layer body (2) includes an inner surface, which is configured by a separation surface (2f) and a pseudo-adhesive surface (2g). The separation surface (2f) faces the ambient air introduction hole (2d) and is separated from an outer surface of the inner layer body (3), and the pseudo-adhesive surface (2g) faces the separation surface (2f) and is separably adhered to the outer surface of the inner layer body (3).

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A double-walled container comprising:
an outer layer body including a mouth with an open upper side, a trunk, and a bottom;
an inner layer body including filling space to contain a content medium, the inner layer body being disposed on an inner side of the outer layer body, the inner layer body being configured to reduce in volume and deform in accordance with dispensing of the content medium from the filling space; and
a single adhesive strip disposed between the outer layer body and the inner layer body such that the adhesive strip extends along a center axis of the outer layer body and partially couples the outer layer body and the inner layer body, wherein:
the outer layer body includes:
a single ambient air introduction hole through which ambient air is drawn between the outer layer body and the inner layer body, the single ambient air introduction hole being located in a position that is offset in a circumferential direction with respect to the adhesive strip, and
an inner surface configured by a separation surface and a pseudo-adhesive surface, the separation surface facing the ambient air introduction hole and being separated from an outer surface of the inner layer body, and the pseudo-adhesive surface facing the separation surface and being separably adhered to the outer surface of the inner layer body;
the mouth is fitted with a dispensing cap though which the content medium contained in the filling space is dispensed to outside of the double-walled container, the dispensing cap being provided with a cap body that is coupled to the dispensing cap via a hinge; and
the hinge is disposed above the dispensing cap in a state where (i) the separation surface and the pseudo-adhesive surface are positioned on both sides of the central axis in a horizontal direction and (ii) the outer layer body is displaced in a tilted position, such that the content medium flows out of the double-walled container.

2. A double-walled container comprising:
an outer layer body including a mouth with an open upper side, a trunk, and a bottom;
an inner layer body including filling space to contain a content medium, the inner layer body being disposed on an inner side of the outer layer body, the inner layer body being configured to reduce in volume and deform in accordance with dispensing of the content medium from the filling space; and
a single adhesive strip disposed between the outer layer body and the inner layer body such that the adhesive strip extends along a center axis of the outer layer body and partially couples the outer layer body and the inner layer body, wherein:
the outer layer body includes:
a single ambient air introduction hole through which ambient air is drawn between the outer layer body and the inner layer body, the single ambient air introduction hole being located in a position that is offset in a circumferential direction with respect to the adhesive strip, and
an inner surface configured by a separation surface and a pseudo-adhesive surface, the separation surface facing the ambient air introduction hole and being separated from an outer surface of the inner layer body, and the pseudo-adhesive surface facing the separation surface and being separably adhered to the outer surface of the inner layer body;

the mouth is fitted with a dispensing cap though which the content medium contained in the filling space is dispensed to outside of the double-walled container, the dispensing cap including a ceiling wall covering an opening of the mouth and a dispensing tube extending from the ceiling wall; and
the dispensing tube includes a higher side part having a height measured from the ceiling wall that is higher than a height of a remaining portion of the dispensing tube, the higher side part being disposed below the remaining portion of the dispensing tube in a state where (i) the separation surface and the pseudo-adhesive surface are positioned on both sides of the central axis in a horizontal direction and (ii) the outer layer body is displaced in a tilted position, such that the content medium flows out of the double-walled container.

3. The double-walled container according to claim 1 , wherein the ambient air introduction hole is provided at a position that is 90 degrees offset in the circumferential direction with respect to the adhesive strip.
