 (Notch)
 Hereinafter, the notch 23 of the flange portion 22 will be described in detail. Figure 17 is a sectional view showing a case of cutting the container with lid 10 shown in FIG. 12 at line XVII-XVII through the notch 23. Further, FIG. 18 is an enlarged plan view showing a notch 23 in order to explain the notch 23 of the flange portion 22. 17, the dotted line drawn at a location code 23 is shown in the case of forming the cutout portions 23 by notching a part of the outer edge 22y of the flange portion 22, shows an example of a cut-out area there. In the sectional view shown in FIG. 17, nothing is present in the surrounded by a dotted line area, and has a notch 23.
[0102]
 As shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, notch 23 of the flange portion 22 is at least partly in contact with the outer edge 40y of the protruding sealing portion 44 of the sealing portion 40. In other words, in the horizontal direction, and the position of the outer edge 40y of the protruding sealing portion 44 of the position and the sealing portion 40 of the outer edge 22y of the flange portion 22 of the notch 23 is at least partially coincide. Thus, as will be described later, in the step of heat sealing a lid 30 to the flange portion 22 using a hot plate, it is possible to relax the precision required in the positioning of the hot plate against the flange portion 22. Thus, it is possible to reduce the time and cost required for the process of heat sealing. Incidentally, as shown in FIG. 18, a portion of the notch 23 of the flange portion 22, even in contact with the outer edge 40y of the main seal portion 42 extending along the long side portion 22A.
[0103]
 In the example shown in FIG. 17, the lid 30 is configured so as to cover the cutout portion 23 of the flange portion 22. However, it is not limited thereto, although not shown, notch overlapping the notch 23 of the flange portion 22 may be formed on the outer edge 30y of the lid 30. In other words, the position of the notch 23 of the flange portion 22, and the position of the outer edge 30y of the portion corresponding to the notch 23 of the flange portion 22 of the lid 30 may coincide. Such container with lid 10, for example, the outer edge 30y of the outer edge 22y and the lid 30 of the flange portion 22 by punching a flange portion 22 and the lid 30 at a predetermined mold after bonding the lid 30 to the flange portion 22 of the container 20 by forming the notch may produced.
[0104]
 Incidentally, the pressure generated in the housing portion 25 at the time of heating is not only acts as a force for peeling the projecting seal portion 44, also acts as a stress to deform the container 20. If notch 23 in the flange portion 22 is provided, stress generated in the flange portion 22 due to the pressure of the housing portion 25, tends to concentrate on the notch 23. In this case, the container 20 there is a concern that easily deform the notch 23 as the starting point.
[0105]
 In contrast, in Patent Document 1 described above, the flange portion 22 and side portions 213 of the container 20, the convex portion projecting inward is formed. Protrusions are believed to act to suppress the deformation of the container 20. On the other hand, when providing a convex portion on the side 213 of the container 20, by the amount of protrusion by volume of the opening 29 is reduced. It is also conceivable that the protrusions hinder the use of the container 20. For example, if the food is accommodated in the container 20, the convex portion is considered that impede eating behavior.
[0106]
 In consideration of such problems, as shown in FIG. 18, in the vicinity of the notch 23, the side portion 213 of the container 20, it is preferable that the convex portions as in Patent Document 1 does not exist. In other words, the portion (first portion 214) corresponding to the inner notch 23 of the side 213 of the container 20, the second portion 215 portions (a pair located on opposite sides of the first portion 214 of the side 213 ) preferably form the same plane or the same curved surface (see FIG. 11). By the absence of protrusions on the side 213, it is possible to ensure a larger volume of the housing portion 25. Further, it is possible to improve the usability of the container 20.
[0107]
 On the other hand, in the present embodiment, since there are no protrusions or recesses of which the portion corresponding to the notch 23 of the side 213, considered likely container 20 is deformed as compared with the case of Patent Document 1. Such problems in mind, in this embodiment, shown in FIG. 18, it is proposed to set relatively large second tip angle θ2 at the tip portion of the notch 23. For example, it is proposed to the second tip angle .theta.2, larger than the first apex angle θ1 of the aforementioned projecting seal portion 44.
[0108]
 First, a description for the definition of the second tip angle .theta.2. 18, reference numeral P3 and code P4 represent first contact and second contact and the outer edge 40y of the main seal portion 42 of the notch 23 and the seal portion 40 of the flange portion 22 is in contact. Further, reference numeral P1 denotes the most opening 29 (accommodating portion 25) point located side of the cutout portion 23 (hereinafter, also referred to as center point). The second tip angle θ2 is defined as the angle formed between a straight line connecting the first contact point P3 and the center point P1 and a straight line connecting the second contacts P4 and the tip point P1. The first contact point P3 and the second contact P4 is also the point edge 40y of the main seal portion 42 and the outer edge 40y of the protruding sealing portion 44 is connected.
[0109]
 The second tip angle θ2 at the tip portion of the notch 23, to be larger than the first apex angle θ1 of the protruding sealing portion 44, it is possible to prevent the stress concentration in the notch 23 during heating. Thus, it is possible to suppress the deformed containers 20 starting from the notch 23 during heating. The second tip angle θ2 is, for example, 65 ° or more and 160 ° or less. Preferably, the second tip angle θ2 is greater at least 5 ° higher than the first tip angle .theta.1.
[0110]
 Preferably, notch 23 is curved at a predetermined radius of curvature at the center point P1. Thus, it is possible to prevent the stress concentration at the tip point P1 of the notch 23 at the time of heating. The radius of curvature of the notch 23 at the tip point P1 is, for example 2mm or more and 30mm or less.
[0111]
 18, reference numeral D1 represents the shortest distance between the inner edge 22x of the notch tip point of the portion 23 P1 and the flange portion 22 of the flange portion 22 (hereinafter, also referred to as a first shortest distance). Further, reference numeral D2 is at a position where the primary seal portion 42 and the protruding sealing portion 44 is connected, the shortest distance between the inner edge 22x of the inner edge 40x and the flange portion 22 of the main seal portion 42 of the sealing portion 40 (hereinafter, representing the second also referred to as the shortest distance). The first minimum distance D1 is, from the adhesion inhibiting mechanism 19 such as a notch 23 to the opening 29, it corresponds to the shortest distance in a plan view. The second shortest distance D2 is connected portion with the main seal portion 42 and the protruding sealing portion 44 is connected of the sealing portion 40 from the inner edge 40x to the opening 29 of the (portion corresponding to the point P3 or the point P4) corresponds to the shortest distance in a plan view.
 Preferably, the first minimum distance D1 between the inner edge 22x of the notch 23 and the flange portion 22 is smaller than the second minimum distance D2 between the inner edge 22x of the main seal portion 42 and the flange portion 22. Thus, when the peeling has proceeded to a connection point between the inner edge 40x of the inner edge 40x protruding sealing portion of the primary seal portion 42 of the projecting seal portion 44 at the time of heating, it is possible to discharge the vapor of the accommodation portion 25 to the outside. Thus, it is possible to reduce the pressure in the housing portion 25, the peeling of the sealing portion 40 can be prevented to proceed further. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the peeled off the main seal portion 42 at the time of heating. A second shortest distance D2 is the difference between the first minimum distance D1, preferably 1mm or more.
 The first minimum distance D1 and the second shortest distance D2 can also be defined in embodiments other than the second embodiment. Also, preferably, the relationship of the first shortest distance D1 is smaller than the second minimum distance D2 is also established in embodiments other than the second embodiment.
[0112]
 Incidentally, the fact that the first minimum distance D1 is smaller than the second minimum distance D2 is the tip portion P1 of contact inhibition mechanism 19, such as a notch 23 and later-described step portion 24 or the notch 39, the line shown in FIG. 18 than 401 is synonymous with that located inside (opening 29 side). Line 401 is a line that extends virtually the inner edge 40x of the main seal portion 42 to the outside of the area of ​​the projected seal part 44. If inner edge 40x of the main seal portion 42 is curved rather than a straight line, a line 401 extending virtually also becomes a curve having the same curvature and the inner edge 40x.
[0113]
 (Method of manufacturing a container with a lid)
 Next, an example of a method for manufacturing a container with lid 10.
[0114]
 First, by an injection molding method using a thermoplastic resin such as polypropylene to produce a container 20 having a body portion 21 and the flange portion 22 integrally formed. Then, by cutting out a portion of the outer edge 22y of the flange portion 22 to form a notch 23 in the flange portion 22. In this way, as shown in FIG. 19, it is possible to obtain a container 20 partially into the notch 23 is formed in the flange portion 22. Incidentally, the mold used in injection molding, may have a shape corresponding to the notch 23. In this case, the step of cutting away a portion of the outer edge 22y of the flange portion 22 is not necessary.
[0115]
 Subsequently, filling contents into the accommodating portion 25 of the container 20. In addition, to prepare the lid 30. Thereafter, it places the lid 30 on the upper surface of the flange portion 22 of the container 20. Next, the portion to the seal portion 40 is formed out of the lid 30, by heating from the upper surface 31 side using a hot plate, the sealant layer 35 of the lid 30 is melted, heat sealing the lid 30 to the flange portion 22 to. Figure 20 is a plan view showing an example of a process for heat-sealing the lid 30 to the flange portion 22. In Figure 20, a heating unit 51 for heating the lid 30 in contact with the upper surface of the lid 30 of the heat plate is shown as the hatched region.
[0116]
 As can be seen from a comparison of FIGS. 12 and 20, the inner edge 51x of the heating unit 51 has the same contour as the inner edge 40x of the protruding sealing portion 44 of the sealing portion 40. Further, the portion corresponding to the main seal portion 42 of the outer edge 51y of the heating unit 51 has the same contour as the outer edge 40y of the main seal portion 42. On the other hand, the portion corresponding to the protruding sealing portion 44 of the outer edge 51y of the heating portion 51 extends so as to overlap with the cutout portion 23 of the container 20. That is, the portion corresponding to the protruding sealing portion 44 of the outer edge 51y of the heating unit 51 does not have the same contour and the outer edge 40y of the protruding sealing portion 44. For example, the portion corresponding to the protruding sealing portion 44 of the outer edge 51y of the heating portion 51 extends in the same straight line and the portion corresponding to the main seal portion 42 of the outer edge 51y of the heating portion 51.
[0117]
 Therefore, even when the position of the heating portion 51 of the heat plate relative to the outer edge 22y of the flange portion 22 in the heat sealing process is shifted from the predetermined position, there is a high possibility that it is possible to obtain an appropriate protruding sealing portion 44 Become. Thus, it is possible to reduce the time and cost required for the process of heat sealing.
[0118]
 A part of the outer edge 51y of the heating unit 51, so extend so as to overlap with the cutout portion 23 of the container 20, the projecting seal portion 44, it is possible that the outer edge 40y is formed in contact with the notch 23. In other words, the position of the outer edge 40y of the projecting seal portion 44, the position of the notch 23 is coincident. Thus, after the peeling projecting seal portion 44, the steam passes through the gap between the lid 30 and the flange portion 22 and easily removed from the outer edge 22y of the flange portion 22 to the outside of the notch 23. That is, it is possible to enhance the 蒸通 of container with lid 10.
[0119]
 Further, in the present embodiment, in the vicinity of the notch 23, on the side 213 of the container 20 there is no convex portion or concave portion. Thus, the volume of the housing portion 25 larger by ensuring, or can improve the usability of the container 20. Further, in this embodiment, since the second tip angle θ2 at the tip portion of the notch 23 is larger than the first apex angle θ1 of the protruding sealing portion 44, prevent the stress concentration in the notch 23 at the time of heating can do. Therefore, even in the portion corresponding to the inner notch 23 of the side 213 of the container 20 even when the convex portion or the concave portion does not exist, it is possible to prevent the container 20 is deformed when heated.
[0120]

In this case, the contour of the notch 23 may include a straight portion 23a extending in parallel to the inner edge 22x of the flange portion 22. Straight portion 23a is a set of distance that is the shortest between the inner edge 22x of the flange portion 22. In this case, the tip point P1 described above, as shown in FIG. 21, is defined as the midpoint of the straight portion 23a.
[0122]
 In the example shown in FIG. 21, preferably, the second tip angle θ2 formed between the straight line connecting the first contact point P3 and the center point P1 and a straight line connecting the second contacts P4 and the tip point P1 is, first the projecting seal portion 44 greater than 1 tip angle θ1. Thus, it is possible to prevent the stress concentration in the notch 23 during heating.

The melting point of the material constituting the sealant layer 35 is lower than the melting point of the resin constituting the base material 34.
[0136]
 (Seal portion)
 sealing portion 40 seals the accommodating portion 25 of the container 20 by joining a lower surface 32 of the first plane 221 and the lid 30 of the flange portion 22 from the outside. As shown in FIG. 28A, the seal section 40 between the first plane 221 and the lower surface 32 of the lid 30 of the flange portion 22 is continuously formed over one circumference so as to surround the accommodating portion 25 in a plan view . Seal portion 40 may be one which is formed by at least partially melting at least one of the container 20 or lid 30. The sealing portion 40, such as an adhesive, the container 20 and lid 30 may be one formed by separate components. The seal portion 40 by forming between the lid 30 and the flange portion 22, it is possible to seal the housing portion 25 of the container 20 from the outside. In FIG. 28B, although the sealing portion 40 is shown an example which is formed on the lid 30 side, it is not limited thereto. For example, the seal portion 40, which may be across both the lid 30 and the flange portion 22, also, the sealing portion 40 may be formed in the flange portion 22 side.
[0137]
 As shown in FIG. 28A, the seal section 40, the primary seal portion extending along the inner edge 22x or outer edge 22y of the flange portion 22 (the main line) 42 are arranged in a long side portion 22A of the flange portion 22, the main seal portion has projecting sealing portion protruding inward and (projecting line) 44, from 42. Note that the long side portion, a portion extending along the longer side 22a of the flange portion 22. Further, a portion extending along the short side 22b of the flange portion 22, referred to as short side portions 22B.
[0138]
 Figure 29 is an enlarged view showing a protruding sealing portion 44 of the sealing portion 40 of the container with lid 10 shown in FIG. 28A. As shown in FIG. 29, the protruding sealing portion 44 of the sealing portion 40 includes a first portion 45 of the pair extending from the main seal portion 42 on the inner side, the tip portion connecting the pair of first portion 45 (second portion ) contains a 46. Therefore, the protruding sealing portion 44 will have a generally triangular shape which projects inwardly. In this case, the pressure in the housing portion 25 of the container 20 with the heat increases, the distal end portion of the substantially triangular protruding inwardly of the protruding sealing portion 44, i.e. distal portion 46 is peeled off the lid in place of the tip portion 30 is peeled from the first plane 221 of the flange portion 22.
[0139]
 Incidentally, as long as can be peeled from the flange portion 22 faster than the protruding sealing portion 44 the main seal portion 42 when the contents are heated, does not specific shape of the protruding sealing portion 44 is limited. For example, although not shown, the protruding sealing portion 44 may further include a first portion 45 and a portion other than the tip of the above.
[0140]
 [Venting mechanism]
 When the protruding sealing portion 44 is peeled from the flange portion 22, steam holes are formed between the lid 30 and the flange portion 22, the vapor of the housing portion 25 through the steam holes escapes to the outside. Accordingly, in this embodiment, the protruding sealing portion 44, constitute a venting mechanism 18 for discharging the steam generated in the housing portion 25 to the outside of the housing portion 25.
[0141]
 Venting mechanism 18 is preferably the distance from the center point 29c of the opening 29 is provided such that the shortest distance. For example, if the contour of the flange portion 22 is substantially rectangular, protruding sealing portion 44 of the flange portion 22 is preferably of the long side portion 22A of the flange portion 22, located in the middle in the direction long side 22a extends. Thus, the distance between the center point 29c of the opening 29 and the inner edge 40x of the protruding sealing portion 44 can be the shortest distance, by this, the projecting seal due to the pressure caused when the contents are heated it is possible to further increase the force acting on the part 44.
[0142]
 Incidentally, when the contents are heated in a microwave oven, the contents of the temperature of the vessel 20 is also increased with the flange portion 22 and the container 20 is deformed sometimes or crimped warp upward. Alternatively, when the rigidity of the container 20 is low, the flange portion 22 deforms the container 20 when joining the cover 30 to the container 20 may or crimped warp upward. When such deformation occurs, the formed steam holes becomes easy to be closed between the lid 30 and the flange portion 22. In consideration of such problems, in the present embodiment, it is proposed to form the convex portion 26 in the first plane 221 of the flange portion 22. In the present embodiment, the convex portion 26 functions as suppressing adhesion suppression mechanism 19 that the lower surface of the upper surface and the lid 30 of the flange portion 22 comes into close contact when the contents are heated.
[0143]
 (Convex)
 or less, with reference to FIGS. 29 and 30, will be described protrusion 26. Figure 30 is a cross-sectional view showing a case where a container with lid of FIG. 29, taken along line XXX-XXX through the convex portion 26. Line XXX-XXX is parallel to the direction in which the extending (long side 22a in this case) side of the flange portion 22 of the convex portion 26 is formed.
[0144]
 As shown in FIG. 30, the convex portion 26 is a portion that protrudes from the first plane 221 of the flange portion 22 upward. As shown in FIGS. 29 and 30, the convex portion 26 is formed in a portion overlapping with the lid 30 a outside the protruding sealing portion 44 of the first plane 221 of the flange portion 22. Specifically, the convex portion 26, side flanges projecting sealing portion 44 is formed with projecting seal portions projecting portion 26 when viewed along a direction perpendicular to the direction in which the extending (here long side 22a is) 44 and is to overlap, is disposed. That is, in contact with the lower surface 32 of the apex and the lid 30 of the protrusion 26. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 30, in the periphery of the convex portion 26, it is possible to form the gap 28 between the first plane 221 of the lower surface 32 and the flange portion 22 of the lid 30.
[0145]
 As shown in FIG. 29, the convex portion 26 is formed on the outer edge 22y side of the portion of the flange portion 22 of the first plane 221 of the flange portion 22. The "edge closer", in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which the side of the flange portion 22 of the convex portion 26 is formed extending a distance from the protrusion 26 to the outer edge 22y is than the distance from the protrusion 26 to the inner edge 22x which means that even small.

In the fourth modification, by providing a heat-softenable resin layer 37 on the lid 30 constitutes a venting mechanism 18. In the fourth modification, a detailed description is given the same reference numerals in the form of the same parts of the embodiment described above will be omitted. Also, when the effects obtained in the embodiment described above it is clear that also obtained in the present embodiment, it may be omitted from the description.
[0223]
 Figure 47 is a plan view showing a container with lid 10 according to the present modification. Further, FIG. 48 is a sectional view showing a when viewed along the container with lid 10 shown in Figure 47 the straight line Lc. In this modification, the straight line Lc is a straight line reaching at the shortest distance from the center point 29c of the opening 29 to seal portion 40 in a plan view.
[0224]
 As shown in FIG. 48, the lid 30 includes a substrate 34, in addition to the sealant layer 35 and the adhesive layer 36, further comprises a heat-softenable resin layer 37 located between the substrate 34 and the sealant layer 35. Heat-softenable resin layer 37, the adhesive layer 36 in contact with the substrate 34, is positioned between the sealant layer 35. Although not shown, heat-softenable resin layer 37, the adhesive layer 36 in contact with the sealant layer 35, may be positioned between the substrate 34. Furthermore, if the lid 30 comprises a support, between the substrate 34 and the support, or, a heat-softenable resin layer 37 may be positioned between the support and the sealant layer 35.
[0225]
