Abstract

A container is configured so that a bottom section has a ground contact section provided to the outer periphery of a body section, and a raised bottom section provided inside the ground contact section and deformed in accordance with a change in inner pressure; the raised bottom section is provided with an upper surface section provided at the center, and a connection section which connects the upper surface section and the ground contact section; the connection section is formed so that, when the inner pressure is normal pressure, the upper surface section-side end of the connection section is positioned closer to a neck section than the ground contact section-side end of the connection section; and at least the connection section of the bottom section is provided with a reinforcement section which extends in the radial direction of the bottom section and reinforces the bottom section.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A container made of resin, the container comprising:
a neck portion that is opened;
a tubular body portion; and
a bottom portion sealing one end side of the body portion,
wherein the bottom portion includes a ground contact portion provided on an outer peripheral part of the body portion and a raised bottom portion provided on an inner side of the ground contact portion and configured to deform according to a change in internal pressure,
wherein the raised bottom portion includes an upper surface portion provided in a central part thereof and a connecting portion that connects the upper surface portion and the ground contact portion,
wherein at least the connecting portion of the bottom portion is provided with a reinforcement portion that extends in a radial direction of the bottom portion and reinforces the bottom portion,
wherein a first corner portion is formed between the connection portion and the ground contact portion, and a second corner portion is formed between the connection portion and the upper surface portion,
wherein the first corner portion is convex toward an inner side of the container, and the second corner portion is convex toward the inner side of the container,
wherein the reinforcement portion is a rib protruding from an inner surface of the bottom portion, and
wherein the reinforcement portion includes a main body portion provided in the connecting portion, a first extension portion continuous from the main body portion and extending to the upper surface portion, and a second extension portion continuous from the main body portion and extending to the ground contact portion.

2. The container according to claim 1 ,
wherein the connecting portion is formed such that an end portion of the connecting portion on the upper surface portion side is located closer to the neck portion than an end portion of the connecting portion on the ground contact portion side in a state where the internal pressure is a normal pressure.

3. The container according to claim 1 ,
wherein the bottom portion is provided with a plurality of the reinforcement portions which extend radially from a central part of the bottom portion toward an outer peripheral part of the bottom portion.

4. The container according to claim 1 ,
wherein a thickness of the first extension portion and a thickness of the second extension portion are thinner than a thickness of the main body portion.

5. The container according to claim 1 ,
wherein a width of the first extension portion and a width of the second extension portion are narrower than a width of the main body portion.
