Abstract

Pressure reduction-absorbing bottle includes: cylindrical shoulder portion; cylindrical body portion connecting to the shoulder portion lower end; and bottom portion formed in cylindrical shape with bottom and connecting to the body portion lower end. The bottom portion includes: heel portion connected to the body portion lower opening section, and bottom wall portion closing the heel portion lower opening section. The bottom wall portion includes: grounding portion, rising circumferential wall portion, movable wall portion, and recessed circumferential wall portion. The movable wall portion capable of rotating around the connection portion with the rising circumferential wall portion to move the recessed circumferential wall portion in up-and-down direction. The body portion includes straight cylindrical part connecting to the shoulder portion lower end and extending downward. The straight cylindrical part outer diameter is greater than or equal to 0.60 times the heel portion outer diameter and is smaller than the heel portion outer diameter.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A pressure reduction-absorbing bottle, comprising:
a cylindrical shoulder portion;
a cylindrical body portion connecting to a lower end of the shoulder portion; and
a bottom portion formed in a cylindrical shape with a bottom and connecting to a lower end of the body portion;
wherein the bottom portion includes:
a heel portion, an upper opening section of the heel portion being connected to a lower opening section of the body portion, and
a bottom wall portion closing a lower opening section of the heel portion;

wherein the bottom wall portion includes:
a grounding portion positioned at an outer circumferential edge of the bottom wall portion,
a rising circumferential wall portion connecting to an inner side in a radial direction of the grounding portion and extending upward,
an annular movable wall portion extending inward in the radial direction from an upper end of the rising circumferential wall portion, and
a recessed circumferential wall portion extending upward from an inner end in the radial direction of the movable wall portion;

wherein the movable wall portion is arranged to be capable of rotating around a connection portion between the rising circumferential wall portion and the movable wall portion so as to move the recessed circumferential wall portion in an up-and-down direction;
wherein the body portion includes a straight cylindrical part connecting to the lower end of the shoulder portion and extending downward;
wherein an outer diameter of the straight cylindrical part is greater than or equal to 0.60 times an outer diameter of the heel portion and is smaller than the outer diameter of the heel portion;
wherein the body portion is provided with two or more panel portions at intervals in a circumferential direction of the body portion, the panel portions being depressed inward in a radial direction of the body portion, and a pillar portion being formed between panel portions next to each other in the circumferential direction;
wherein a panel portion includes a panel bottom wall positioned at an inside of the panel portion in the radial direction, and a sidewall extending outward in the radial direction from an outer circumferential edge of the panel bottom wall; and
wherein the panel bottom wall is provided with a rib formed between vertical sidewall parts of the sidewall intersecting with the circumferential direction, the rib projecting outward in the radial direction, and a gap being formed between the rib and each of the vertical sidewall parts.

2. The pressure reduction-absorbing bottle according to claim 1 ,
wherein the rib is formed on an entire length of the panel bottom wall in a bottle axis direction.

3. The pressure reduction-absorbing bottle according to claim 1 ,
wherein an outer surface of a top wall of the rib is positioned on an edge of an imaginary circle in a horizontal cross section of the body portion parallel to the radial direction, the imaginary circle being formed by connecting outer surfaces of top parts of a plurality of pillar portions in the circumferential direction, and the top parts being positioned at the outside of the pillar portions in the radial direction.

4. The pressure reduction-absorbing bottle according to claim 1 ,
wherein the body portion includes a lower body part extending downward from a lower end of the straight cylindrical part and connecting to an upper end of the heel portion, and
an outer diameter of the lower body part gradually increases downward.

5. The pressure reduction-absorbing bottle according to claim 2 ,
wherein an outer surface of a top wall of the rib is positioned on an edge of an imaginary circle in a horizontal cross section of the body portion parallel to the radial direction, the imaginary circle being formed by connecting outer surfaces of top parts of a plurality of pillar portions in the circumferential direction, and the top parts being positioned at the outside of the pillar portions in the radial direction.

6. The pressure reduction-absorbing bottle according to claim 2 ,
wherein the body portion includes a lower body part extending downward from a lower end of the straight cylindrical part and connecting to an upper end of the heel portion, and
an outer diameter of the lower body part gradually increases downward.

7. The pressure reduction-absorbing bottle according to claim 3 ,
wherein the body portion includes a lower body part extending downward from a lower end of the straight cylindrical part and connecting to an upper end of the heel portion, and
an outer diameter of the lower body part gradually increases downward.

8. The pressure reduction-absorbing bottle according to claim 5 ,
wherein the body portion includes a lower body part extending downward from a lower end of the straight cylindrical part and connecting to an upper end of the heel portion, and
an outer diameter of the lower body part gradually increases downward.
