Abstract

A sheet member container including one or more sheet members, including a main-body forming sheet member having an outer film layer and an inner film layer laminated on each other. The sheet member container has a containing portion that accommodates contents, a container main body including the main-body forming sheet member, and a peripheral edge sealing portion in which the one or more sheet members are folded along a folding line.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A sheet member container, comprising:
one or more sheet members including a main-body forming sheet member including an outer film layer and an inner film layer laminated on each other;
a containing portion that accommodates contents;
a container main body including the main-body forming sheet member, and surrounding the containing portion, wherein the main-body forming sheet member includes a main-body sealing portion that is an attached portion of the outer film layer and the inner film layer, a non-attached region in which the outer film layer and the inner film layer are partially not attached, and a filling portion in which a filler is optionally enclosed between the outer film layer and the inner film layer in the non-attached region; and
a peripheral edge sealing portion in which the one or more sheet members are folded along a folding line, and portions of a peripheral edge portion of at least an innermost layer sheet member of the one or more sheet members are attached to each other, wherein:
the containing portion is defined by the peripheral edge sealing portion,
the container main body comprises a plurality of surface portions,
the plurality of surface portions include a first surface portion and a second surface portion adjacent to each other,
the filling portion includes an interfacial connecting portion arranged across the first surface portion and the second surface portion via a boundary between the first surface portion and the second surface portion, and
in the boundary, an end portion of the peripheral edge sealing portion along the folding line is away from a boundary position between the interfacial connecting portion and the main-body sealing portion.

2. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein in the boundary, a width size of the peripheral edge sealing portion along the folding line is equal to or larger than a width size of the main-body sealing portion.

3. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein in the boundary, a width size of the peripheral edge sealing portion along the folding line is larger than a width size of the main-body sealing portion.

4. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein in the boundary, a total value of a width size of the peripheral edge sealing portion along the folding line and a width size of the main-body sealing portion is larger than a half of a width size of the interfacial connecting portion.

5. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein in the boundary, the main-body sealing portion is adjacent to the peripheral edge sealing portion.

6. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein at a position of the interfacial connecting portion, none of the film layers that constitute the sheet member container are attached to each other.

7. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein in the peripheral edge sealing portion, all of the film layers that constitute the sheet member container are attached.

8. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein the second surface portion includes a discharge port through which the contents are discharged from the containing portion.

9. The sheet member container according to claim 8 , wherein:
the second surface portion includes a plate shape portion including an opening that communicates to the discharge port, and
the one or more sheet members are attached to the plate shape portion.

10. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein:
the container main body includes a body portion and a top portion,
a main surface portion of the body portion is the first surface portion, and
the top portion is the second surface portion.

11. The sheet member container according to claim 10 , wherein:
the top portion includes a discharge port through which the contents are discharged from the containing portion,
the filling portion includes a first filling portion formed along a peripheral edge portion of the main surface portion, and a fourth filling portion formed around the discharge port in the top portion, and
the first filling portion is connected to the fourth filling portion via the interfacial connecting portion.

12. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein:
the container main body includes a body portion and a bottom portion,
a main surface portion of the body portion is the first surface portion, and
the bottom portion is the second surface portion.

13. The sheet member container according to claim 12 , wherein:
the filling portion includes a first filling portion formed along a peripheral edge portion of the main surface portion, and a third filling portion formed along a peripheral edge portion of the bottom portion, and
the first filling portion is connected to the third filling portion via the interfacial connecting portion.

14. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein:
the container main body includes a body portion,
a main surface portion of the body portion is the first surface portion, and
the other main surface portion of the body portion is the second surface portion.

15. The sheet member container according to claim 14 , wherein:
the filling portion includes a first filling portion formed along a peripheral edge portion of the main surface portion, and a second filling portion formed along a peripheral edge portion of the other main surface portion, and
the first filling portion is connected to the second filling portion via the interfacial connecting portion.

16. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , further comprising:
an inner bag arranged inside of the container main body, wherein the inner bag comprises an inner-bag forming sheet member that is an innermost layer sheet member of the one or more sheet members.

17. The sheet member container according to claim 16 , wherein in the boundary, an outer edge of the outer film layer, an outer edge of the inner film layer and an outer edge of the inner-bag forming sheet member align with one another.

18. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein in the boundary, an outer edge of the inner film layer is arranged on an inner side of an outer edge of the outer film layer.

19. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein the filling portion is narrowed in the interfacial connecting portion.

20. The sheet member container according to claim 1 , wherein a filler is enclosed in the filling portion.
