Abstract

A liquid storage bottle includes a bottle main body having a first cylindrical portion formed of a resin and a nozzle and has a second cylindrical portion formed of a resin and welded to the first cylindrical portion on an outer peripheral side of the first cylindrical portion. The first cylindrical portion includes an outer peripheral surface and a first annular surface extending radially outward from an axial end portion of the outer peripheral surface, the second cylindrical portion includes an inner peripheral surface facing the outer peripheral surface of the first cylindrical portion and a second annular surface which extends radially outward from an axial end portion of the inner peripheral surface and faces the first annular surface of the first cylindrical portion, and a peripheral wall portion extending in an axial direction is formed radially outside the second annular surfaces.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A liquid storage bottle comprising:
a bottle main body which has a first cylindrical portion formed of a resin; and
a nozzle which is joined to the bottle main body so as to inject a liquid stored in the bottle main body and has a second cylindrical portion formed of a resin and welded to the first cylindrical portion on an outer peripheral side of the first cylindrical portion,
wherein the first cylindrical portion includes an outer peripheral surface and a first annular surface which extends radially outward from an axial end portion of the outer peripheral surface,
wherein the second cylindrical portion includes an inner peripheral surface which faces the outer peripheral surface of the first cylindrical portion and a second annular surface which extends radially outward from an axial end portion of the inner peripheral surface and faces the first annular surface of the first cylindrical portion, and
wherein a peripheral wall portion which protrudes in an axial direction is formed radially outside one of the first and second annular surfaces, and the peripheral wall portion is formed of a part of the first cylindrical portion or the second cylindrical portion, and
the peripheral wall portion is not in contact with the radially outside one of the first and second annular surfaces that the peripheral wall portion faces.

2. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 1 ,
wherein the peripheral wall portion includes an inner peripheral surface which is parallel to the axial direction.

3. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 1 ,
wherein a plurality of the peripheral wall portions is formed at intervals in a circumferential direction.

4. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 3 ,
wherein a rib which connects the peripheral wall portions to each other is formed between the peripheral wall portions adjacent to each other.

5. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 1 ,
wherein the peripheral wall portion is formed continuously in a circumferential direction.

6. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first cylindrical portion and the second cylindrical portion are welded to each other on the first annular surface and the second annular surface.

7. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 6 ,
wherein a concave portion for accommodating the peripheral wall portion is formed radially outside the other of the first and second annular surfaces, and
an inner peripheral surface of the peripheral wall portion and the radially outside the other of the first and second annular surfaces are continuous surfaces of the same height.

8. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first cylindrical portion and the second cylindrical portion are welded to each other on the outer peripheral surface and the inner peripheral surface.

9. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 8 ,
wherein the first annular surface and the second annular surface are joined to each other.

10. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 8 ,
wherein a concave portion for accommodating the peripheral wall portion is formed radially outside the other of the first and second annular surfaces, and
an inner peripheral surface of the peripheral wall portion and radially outside the other of the first and second annular surfaces are continuous surfaces of the same height.

11. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 8 ,
wherein the outer peripheral surface and the inner peripheral surface are formed in a stepped shape.

12. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 8 ,
wherein the outer peripheral surface and the inner peripheral surface are formed in a tapered shape.

13. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 1 ,
wherein each of the first and second annular surfaces is perpendicular to the axial direction.

14. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 1 , wherein the peripheral wall portion is formed of the part of the first cylindrical portion.

15. The liquid storage bottle according to claim 1 , wherein the peripheral wall portion is formed of the part of the second cylindrical portion.

16. A resin part comprising:
a first member which has a first cylindrical portion; and
a second member which is joined to the first member and has a second cylindrical portion welded to the first cylindrical portion on an outer peripheral side of the first cylindrical portion,
wherein the first cylindrical portion includes an outer peripheral surface and a first annular surface which extends radially outward from an axial end portion of the outer peripheral surface,
wherein the second cylindrical portion includes an inner peripheral surface which faces the outer peripheral surface of the first cylindrical portion and a second annular surface which extends radially outward from an axial end portion of the inner peripheral surface and faces the first annular surface of the first cylindrical portion, and
wherein a peripheral wall portion which protrudes in an axial direction is formed radially outside one of the first and second annular surfaces, and the peripheral wall portion is formed of a part of the first cylindrical portion or the second cylindrical portion, and
the peripheral wall portion is not in contact with the radially outside one of the first and second annular surfaces that the peripheral wall portion faces.

17. The resin part according to claim 16 , wherein the peripheral wall portion is formed of the part of the second cylindrical portion.

18. The resin part according to claim 16 , wherein the peripheral wall portion is formed of a part of the first cylindrical portion.
