  In this specification, the term “extracting portion” is not limited to an opening that allows communication between the outside of the container and the filling portion that is the inner space of the container, but the opening is formed by cutting the sheet material or the like. It is intended to include a portion (that is, an opening formation scheduled portion). In the embodiment, the former will be referred to as the takeout port 18 and the latter will be referred to as the takeout port formation scheduled portion 18z.

  In the embodiment, “powder or granules” filled in a pouch container will be described as a powder 40 intended for powdered milk, protein powder, and the like. However, the “powder or granule” is not particularly limited as long as it can be scraped off with the measuring spoon 41, and seasonings such as sugar and salt, flour, or coffee having a larger particle size. Beans and tea leaves are also included.

  In the embodiment, a standing pouch is illustrated, but the configuration of the present invention may be applied to other pouch configurations such as a flat pouch that does not have independence. Moreover, the spoon accommodated in the inside of a pouch container is demonstrated as the measuring spoon 41 illustrated in FIG.

  The measuring spoon 41 has a form in which a dish 42, which is a part that scatters the powder 40, is provided at one end of a handle 43 that extends straight. The measuring spoon 41 is an accessory of a pouch container, for example. The pouch container is distributed and sold by storing the measuring spoon 41 inside the container before the upper edge seal portion 20 is formed. In addition, the measuring spoon 41 has a size that can be accommodated inside the pouch container 10, and is preferably, for example, a length similar to the length from the bottom of the filling unit 15 to the chuck 16. Thereby, even if it is a case where the quantity of the powder 40 of the filling part 15 decreases, the measuring spoon 41 can be hold | maintained by a spoon holding | maintenance part.

  In the embodiment, the portion where the take-out port 18 is provided is the “upper portion” of the container, and the portion facing the upper portion is the “lower” portion of the container. Also, the direction in which the sheet materials are laminated is the “front and back direction” of the container, and the direction perpendicular to the vertical direction and the front and back direction is the “width direction” of the container. Hereinafter, the vertical direction, the front / back direction, and the width direction may be simply referred to.

<First Embodiment>
With reference to FIGS. 1-5, the structure of the pouch container 10 which is 1st Embodiment is demonstrated.
FIG. 1 shows the pouch container 10 before the powder 40 is filled, and FIG. 2 shows the pouch container 10 filled with the powder 40 and containing the measuring spoon. FIG. 3 shows a cross section in which the upward gusset sheet 30 and its vicinity are cut in the vertical direction. FIG. 4 shows a state in which the take-out port 18 is opened (the chuck 16 is omitted and only a part of the seal portions are hatched). FIG. 5 is a view of the upward gusset sheet 30 shown in FIG. 4 as viewed from the upper right side (a mesh hatching is attached to the spoon insertion portion 39).

  The pouch container 10 includes a top sheet 11, a back sheet 12, and a bottom gusset sheet 13, and is a standing pouch that can stand by filling contents. The top sheet 11 and the back sheet 12 are sheet materials that respectively constitute the front surface part and the back surface part of the container, and the bottom gusset sheet 13 is inserted by being folded between the front surface part and the back surface part. It is the sheet | seat material which comprises the bottom gusset part developed by filling. The bottom gusset sheet 13 is mountain-folded upward (see FIG. 1).

  The pouch container 10 forms a seal portion between the top sheet 11 and the back sheet 12 that are overlapped with each other, with the bottom gusset sheet 13 being inserted from the bottom end of the container, and joining the edges of each sheet material. It is the structure which sealed the container interior space enclosed with the sheet | seat material. This container internal space becomes the filling portion 15 filled with the powder 40. Each of the top sheet 11 and the back sheet 12 has a substantially rectangular shape extending slightly longer in the vertical direction. The bottom gusset sheet 13 also has a substantially rectangular shape, and is provided, for example, in a range of about ¼ from the lower ends of the top sheet 11 and the back sheet 12.

  Furthermore, the pouch container 10 includes an upward gusset sheet 30 as an interior sheet that forms a spoon holder. The upward gusset sheet 30 also functions as a scraping portion that enables the powder 40 to be scraped and weighed. The upward gusset sheet 30 is a gusset sheet that is joined to the front surface portion and the back surface portion so as to be expandable and covers a part of the filling portion 15 along the width direction, and like the bottom gusset sheet 13, The mountain is folded upward (see FIGS. 1 and 3). In the present embodiment, the powder 40 is filled in a range that does not cover the upward gusset sheet 30 (see FIG. 2). Hereinafter, the portion below the upward gusset sheet 30 is referred to as a filling portion 15.

  Each sheet material which comprises the pouch container 10 is normally comprised from a resin film. The resin film constituting the sheet material is required to have basic performance as a package, such as impact resistance, wear resistance, and heat resistance. Moreover, since the said seal part is normally formed by heat sealing, heat sealing property is also requested | required of a sheet material. As the sheet material, a multilayer sheet material having a base film layer and a sealant layer that imparts heat sealability is suitable, and when high gas barrier properties are required, the sheet material is provided between the base film layer and the sealant layer. It is preferable to provide a gas barrier layer.

  Here, constituent materials of the base film layer, the sealant layer, and the gas barrier layer are exemplified. In addition, lamination | stacking of these each layer can be performed by the conventional lamination method, for example, the dry lamination by an adhesive agent, the heat lamination which adhere | attaches with a heat | fever by pinching | interposing a heat bonding layer.

  Examples of the film constituting the base film layer include polyester (polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polycarbonate (PC), etc.), polyolefin (polyethylene (PE), polypropylene ( PP), etc.), polyamide (nylon-6, nylon-66, etc.), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), polyimide (PI), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), poly A stretched or unstretched film having one layer or two or more layers composed of ether sulfone (PES) and ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH) can be exemplified.

  The films constituting the sealant layer include low density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE), ethylene-propylene copolymer (EP), unstretched polypropylene (CPP), and biaxially stretched nylon (ON). , Ethylene-olefin copolymer, ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer (EAA), ethylene-methacrylic acid copolymer (EMAA), ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), etc. A stretched or unstretched film can be exemplified.

  The gas barrier layer may be a metal thin film such as aluminum, a resin film such as vinylidene chloride (PVDC) or ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH), or any synthetic resin film (for example, a base film layer). ), And a film obtained by vapor-depositing (or sputtering) an inorganic oxide such as aluminum, aluminum oxide or silica.

  The sheet material can be provided with a printed layer (not shown) for displaying the product name of the contents, the product description such as raw materials and precautions for use, and other various designs. For example, the printing layer can be formed on the inner surface of the base film layer by a known method such as gravure printing.

  The seal portion is preferably formed by heat sealing. The seal part by heat sealing can be formed by superposing and thermocompression bonding so that the sealant layer of each sheet material is inside the container.

  The pouch container 10 includes an upper edge seal portion 20 (see FIG. 2), a lower edge seal portion 21, and a side seal portion 22 as the seal portion. The upper edge seal part 20 is a seal part formed after the powder 40 is filled, and is formed by joining the upper edges of the top sheet 11 and the back sheet 12. The lower edge seal portion 21 is a seal portion formed at the edge of the bottom gusset sheet 13 and is formed by joining the bottom gusset sheet 13 to the top sheet 11 and the back sheet 12. Further, the bottom gusset sheet 13 is formed with notches 14 at both ends in the width direction, and the top sheet 11 and the back sheet 12 are directly joined through the notches 14. The side seal part 22 is formed by directly joining the top sheet 11 and the back sheet 12 at both ends in the container width direction.

  When the pouch container 10 is filled with the powder 40, the top sheet 11 and the back sheet 12 are separated from each other, the bottom gusset sheet 13 is developed, and in particular, the bottom of the container is swollen. Thus, the self-supporting property of the pouch container 10 is expressed. Note that the upward gusset sheet 30 is usually slightly expanded. For example, the powder 40 is filled from the upper end of the container, and the filling portion 15 is sealed by forming the upper edge seal portion 20 after filling.

  Further, the pouch container 10 is provided with a chuck 16 and a notch 17 in the vicinity of the upper edge seal portion 20. The chuck 16 is provided above the upward gusset sheet 30, and the notch 17 is provided above the chuck 16.

  The chuck 16 is configured by, for example, opposingly arranging a first sheet with a ridge and a second sheet with a ridge that fits into the ridge. For example, the first sheet is bonded to the inner surface of the top sheet 11, and the second sheet is bonded to the inner surface of the back sheet 12.

  The notch 17 is a notch serving as a cutting starting point for cutting and opening the top sheet 11 and the back sheet 12, and can be provided in each of the left and right side seal portions 22. When the sheet material is cut along the width direction from the notch 17, the upper edge seal portion 20 is removed, and a takeout port 18 (see FIG. 4) that connects the outside of the container and the filling portion 15 is formed. A two-dot chain line extending from the notch 17 in FIGS. 1 and 2 indicates a take-out port formation scheduled portion 18z that is cut at the time of opening and becomes the take-out port 18. Hereinafter, cutting the sheet material to form the take-out port 18 in the take-out port formation scheduled portion 18z is referred to as opening. After opening, the takeout port 18 can be opened and closed by the chuck 16.

  Hereinafter, the components of the pouch container 10, particularly the configuration of the upward gusset sheet 30, will be described in further detail.

  The upward gusset sheet 30 is a gusset sheet in which a fold line 31 is formed. The upward gusset sheet 30 is folded when the takeout port 18 is closed, and unfolds when the takeout port 18 is opened by opening the chuck 16. In the present embodiment, a crease line 31 is provided at the upper end of the upward gusset sheet 30 along the width direction. In addition, the part (henceforth front side half part 30a) located in the surface sheet 11 side from the crease line 31, and the part (henceforth back side half part 30b) located in the back surface sheet 12 side from the crease line 31. It is preferable that the vertical lengths are substantially equal.

  The upward gusset sheet 30 is provided below the take-out port formation scheduled portion 18 z and the chuck 16. The chuck 16 and the upward gusset sheet 30 are both provided substantially parallel to each other over the entire width of the front and back sheets. Further, the upward gusset sheet 30 is preferably provided in the vicinity of the chuck 16 as long as it does not contact the chuck 16 from the viewpoint of increasing the capacity of the filling portion 15. The interval between the lower end of the chuck 16 and the crease line 31 is preferably about 0.5 mm to 10 mm, for example.

  The upward gusset sheet 30 is provided so as to cover a part of the filling portion 15. The width direction length W2 of the main body portion 32 which is a portion covering the filling portion 15 is the width direction length W1 of the pouch container 10 from the viewpoints of the holding property of the measuring spoon 41, the wearability of the powder 40, the take-out property, and the like. Is preferably about 10% to 70%, more preferably about 20% to 60% of W1, and particularly preferably about 30% to 50% of W1. In the pouch container 10, the powder 40 in the filling portion 15 can be taken out from an opening (a portion where a cut portion 37 described later) is formed in the upward gusset sheet 30 where the main body portion 32 does not exist.

  Further, as will be described later, the upward gusset sheet 30 is preferably provided using a long body 30z of the upward gusset sheet 30 in which a cut portion 37 is formed leaving a portion to be joined to each of the front and back sheets (FIG. 6). reference). For this reason, the upward gusset sheet 30 includes a main body portion 32 that is mountain-folded upward and a line-shaped (band-shaped) connecting portion 38 that extends from the main body portion 32. The upward gusset sheet 30 is joined to the inner surface of the top sheet 11 and the inner surface of the back sheet 12 positioned below the chuck 16, respectively. Specifically, the lower end portion of the front half portion 30a is heat sealed to the top sheet 11, and the lower end portion of the back half portion 30b is heat sealed to the back sheet 12 to form two line-shaped joint portions 33. The

  Further, in the upward gusset sheet 30, the joining portion 33 is formed on substantially the entire connecting portion 38 extending from the front half portion 30 a and the back half portion 30 b. Thereby, the junction part 33 is formed over the full width of the pouch container 10, and about 1-10 mm is suitable for the width | variety (up-down direction length), for example. In addition, the width | variety of the connection part 38 can be made thicker than the width | variety of the junction part 33 (refer the modification mentioned later), for example, is 1.1-20 times normally with respect to the width | variety of the junction part 33, Preferably It can be 1.5 to 10 times. By increasing the width of the connecting portion 38, the rigidity of the connecting portion 38 can be increased, and the transportability of the long body 30z during manufacturing can be improved.

  In the pouch container 10, a spoon holding portion is formed by the main body portion 32 of the upward gusset sheet 30. The spoon holding unit has a function of holding the measuring spoon 41 accommodated in the container, and specifically holds the measuring spoon 41 by supporting the handle 43.

  A spoon insertion part 39 is formed in the main body part 32. The spoon insertion part 39 is a through-hole through which the measuring spoon 41 can be inserted, and is formed so as to penetrate the main body part 32 in the thickness direction. Specifically, the spoon insertion part 39 is formed in the part concerning the crease line 31 of the main-body part 32 ranging over the front side half part 30a and the back side half part 30b. The spoon insertion part 39 has a hole size through which the dish 42 of the measuring spoon 41 can be inserted in a state where the main body part 32 is expanded.

  Although the spoon insertion part 39 will not be specifically limited if it has the said hole dimension, It should be formed in the width direction center part of the main-body part 32 away from the 2nd end part 35 which can press the measuring spoon 41. Is preferred. Thereby, the 2nd end part 35 of main part 32 functions as a scraping part. The main body 32 has a first end 34 that is one end in the width direction joined to the front and back sheets by one side seal part 22 and is not joined to the front and back sheets. The second end 35, which is the end, is used for scraping and weighing the powder 40.

  The spoon insertion part 39 has a shape that is cut into a substantially U shape when viewed from the front, and the cut length in the vertical direction is slightly longer on the second end part 35 side than on the first end part 34 side. And in the state which the main-body part 32 expand | deployed, the 1st end part 34 side exhibits a trapezoid shape by the top view with a short side and the 2nd end part 35 side become a long side. This hole shape corresponds to the developed shape of the main body portion 32, and efficiently realizes a hole size in which the measuring spoon 41 can be easily put in and out while maintaining the rigidity of the main body portion 32.

  In the spoon holding part of the present embodiment, the handle 43 of the measuring spoon 41 inserted into the spoon insertion part 39 is supported by the front half part 30 a and the back half part 30 b of the main body part 32. For example, in a state where the take-out port 18 is closed and the main body 32 is folded, the handle 43 is sandwiched between the front half 30a and the back half 30b. That is, in this embodiment, the whole spoon holding part is formed by the main body part 32 of the upward gusset sheet 30. In addition, in the state which the main-body part 32 expand | deployed, the handle | steering-wheel 43 is supported in the state which contacted the periphery of the spoon insertion part 39. FIG. At this time, the measuring spoon 41 can be pulled out from the spoon insertion part 39.

  In addition, by the said joining form, the main-body part 32 is expanded on the 2nd end part 35 side until the front side half part 30a and the back side half part 30b become substantially parallel at maximum (refer FIG. 5). In the main body portion 32 that is largely developed, an upper surface 36 having a substantially triangular shape is formed. The triangle on the upper surface 36 is an inclined isosceles triangle with the apex P1 in contact with the side seal portion 22 as the upper end and the apexes P2 and P3 in contact with the joint portion 33 as the lower end, and the second end 35 is the lower side. As described above, the developed main body 32 is stably supported by the portions corresponding to the vertices P1 to P3 of the upper surface 36.

  Next, an example of a method for manufacturing the pouch container 10 having the above configuration will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 schematically shows a process of laminating long sheets of each sheet material and forming each seal part in the manufacturing process of the pouch container 10. Here, let the longitudinal direction of a long body be MD direction, and let the width direction of a long body be TD direction.

  As shown in FIG. 6, first, a sheet constituting the top sheet 11, the back sheet 12, the bottom gusset sheet 13, and the chuck 16 (for example, a first sheet with a ridge and a second sheet with a ridge) ) And long bodies of the upward gusset sheet 30 (hereinafter, referred to as long bodies 11z, 12z, 13z, 16z, and 30z) are prepared and stacked on each other. The long bodies 13z and 30z are both mountain-folded toward one end side along the MD direction before lamination. Further, a cut portion 37 is formed on the long body 30z by leaving a connecting portion 38 by a die cut roll or the like, and a plurality of main body portions 32 are formed by the connecting portion 38 (a portion where all or a part thereof becomes the joint portion 33). Processed into a connected shape. At this time, a part of the main body portion 32 is also cut to form the spoon insertion portion 39. The long body 16z is laminated in a state in which the ridges of the first sheet and the ridges of the second sheet are fitted.

  In addition, the size of the cut portion 37 of the long body 30z can be reduced, and for example, the cut portion 37 can be formed into a substantially V-shaped cut or the like when viewed from the front. In this case, the rigidity of the long body 30z is increased and the transportability is improved. However, since the opening through which the powder 40 can be taken out becomes small, for example, a cut line continuous with the cut portion 37 is provided on the gusset sheet 30. It may be formed in the part so that the opening can be enlarged.

  In the laminating process of each long body, first, the long body 11z and the long body 12z are overlapped, and the long body 13z is inserted into the lower ends of the long body 11z and the long body 12z. The long bodies 16z and 30z are inserted into the upper part of the long body 12z, respectively. At this time, the long body 30z is inserted on the lower end side of the long body 16z. Note that a notch 17 and the like are formed in a later step in a portion on the upper end side of the long body 16z.

  Each sealing part is formed in the elongate body which passed through the lamination process at the heat sealing process. In the heat sealing step, the predetermined portion is heat sealed along the lower edge of the long body and the TD direction. Here, the lower edge of the elongated body is a portion that becomes the lower edge of the pouch container 10, and the predetermined portion is a portion that becomes a side edge of the pouch container 10. That is, by this heat sealing process, the lower edge seal portion 21 and the side seal portion 22 (wide seal portions for two containers) are formed.

  In the heat sealing step, the long bodies 16z and 30z are further joined to the long body 11z and the long body 12z, respectively. A joining portion 33 along the MD direction is formed at the lower end of the long body 30z. Further, the side seal portion 22 is formed in a state in which the first end portion 34 of the main body portion 32 is disposed at a portion that becomes a side edge of the pouch container 10. As a result, the first end 34 is fixed to the top sheet 11 and the back sheet 12.

  Then, the said elongate body is cut along the virtual line X of the side seal part 22, for example using a die cut roll etc., and it divides | segments into each container size. At this time, the notch 17 can be formed in the side seal portion 22. In this way, the pouch container 10 shown in FIG. 1 is obtained. Then, after the powder 40 is filled from the upper end of the container, the measuring spoon 41 is inserted into the spoon insertion part 39 with the dish 42 facing downward, and then the upper edge seal part 20 is formed, whereby the powder shown in FIG. The pouch container 10 filled with the body 40 is obtained.

  As described above, according to the pouch container 10, the measuring spoon 41 is not buried in the powder 40 and the powder 40 is not attached to the handle 43 by the spoon holding portion formed by the upward gusset sheet 30. The measuring spoon 41 can be held inside the container in the state. Accordingly, the usability of the measuring spoon 41 is improved, and the hand is not easily touched with the powder 40 and the hygiene aspect is improved.

  Furthermore, according to the pouch container 10, the powder 40 can be scraped and measured using the upward gusset sheet 30 as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8.

  When taking out the powder 40 from the filling part 15 using the measuring spoon 41, first, the takeout port 18 is formed using the notch 17, and then the takeout port 18 is opened by opening the chuck 16. When the take-out port 18 is greatly opened, the top sheet 11 and the back sheet 12 are separated from each other at the upper part of the container and the main body 32 is developed. As a result, the front half 30a and the back half 30b holding the measuring spoon 41 are developed so as to be substantially parallel to each other, and the spoon insertion portion 39 is greatly opened. At this time, the measuring spoon 41 can be pulled out from the spoon insertion part 39.

  When the main body 32 is deployed, the dish 42 of the measuring spoon 41 with the powder 40 placed on the second end 35 can be pressed. The excess powder 40 can be scraped off by pulling the measuring spoon 41 upward while pressing the dish 42 against the second end portion 35. Thus, the amount of the powder 40 per cup of the measuring spoon 41 can be made constant, and simple weighing can be performed. In addition, when the measuring spoon 41 is pressed, the main body portion 32 is not easily bent and the operability is good. Further, the powder 40 remaining on the upper surface 36 after scraping slides down along the inclination of the upper surface 36 and from the spoon insertion portion 39 into the filling portion 15, so that the upper surface 36 is kept hygienic.

  When the removal of the powder 40 is finished, the measuring spoon 41 is inserted into the spoon insertion part 39 again, and the chuck 16 is closed. As a result, the main body 32 is folded, and the handle 43 of the measuring spoon 41 is sandwiched between the front half 30a and the back half 30b, and the measuring spoon 41 can be held inside the container as described above.

  In the above description, the first end portion 34 of the main body portion 32 is illustrated as being joined to the front and back sheets by the side seal portion 22, but FIG. 9 (a front view of the pouch container 10 x is filled with the powder 40. As shown in FIG. 2, the main body portion 32x of the upward gusset sheet 30x constituting the spoon holding portion and the scraping portion may be provided at the central portion in the container width direction. Also in this case, a spoon insertion portion 39x into which the dish 42 of the measuring spoon 41 can be inserted is formed at the center in the width direction of the main body portion 32x. In the pouch container 10x, both ends (first end 34x, second end 35x) in the width direction of the main body portion 32x are not joined to the front and back sheets and are separated from the side seal portion 22, so the dish 42 is attached to one of them. The powder 40 can be scraped off by pressing. That is, both the first end portion 34x and the second end portion 35x function as a scraping portion.

<Second Embodiment>
With reference to FIGS. 10-13, the structure of the pouch container 50 which is 2nd Embodiment is demonstrated. Here, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted.
FIG. 10 shows the pouch container 50 before the powder 40 is filled. FIG. 11 shows a cross-section obtained by cutting the downward gusset sheet 60 and its vicinity in the vertical direction, and the position of the handle 43 when the measuring spoon 41 is inserted into the spoon insertion part 69 is indicated by a chain line. FIG. 12 shows a state in which the take-out port 18 is opened (the chuck 16 is omitted and only a part of the seal portions are hatched). FIG. 13 is a view of the downward gusset sheet 60 shown in FIG. 12 as viewed from the upper right side (spooning portion 69 is provided with mesh hatching).

  The pouch container 50 includes a downward gusset sheet 60 as an interior sheet that forms a spoon holding portion and a scraping portion. Similar to the upward gusset sheet 30, the downward gusset sheet 60 is provided by a long body having a cut portion, and is joined to the front surface portion and the back surface portion so as to be deployable, and covers a part of the filling portion 15 along the width direction. It has a main body part 62 and a line-shaped (band-like) connecting part 68 extending from the main body part 62. A joining portion 63 is formed substantially parallel to the chuck 16 over the entire width of the pouch container 50. In addition, the main-body part 62 is mountain-folded toward the downward direction (refer FIG. 10, 11). Also in the pouch container 50, the powder 40 of the filling part 15 can be taken out from the opening part of the downward gusset sheet 60 where the main body part 62 does not exist.

  In the downward gusset sheet 60, a crease line 61 is formed at the lower end along the width direction. In addition, the arrangement and size of the downward gusset sheet 60 (the front half 60a, the back half 60b, the main body 62, etc.) are the same as those of the upward gusset sheet 30. Further, the first end portion 64 of the main body 62 is joined to the front and back sheets by one side seal portion 22, and the second end 65 facing the opening side without being joined to the front and back sheets is a scraped portion. It becomes.

  The downward gusset sheet 60 preferably has a powder recovery unit 51. The powder recovery unit 51 is a through-hole formed in a portion of the main body 62 that extends along the crease line 61 and has a function of returning the powder 40 existing on the downward gusset sheet 60 to the filling unit 15. It is particularly preferable that the powder recovery part 51 is formed on the first end part 64 side of the main body part 62 and in contact with the one side seal part 22. In the present embodiment, the powder recovery unit 51 is formed by cutting the first end portion 64 from the middle in the vertical direction to the crease line 61 in a straight line when viewed from the front.

  In addition, the main-body part 62 is expand | deployed until the front side half part 60a and the back side half part 60b become substantially parallel at the maximum in the 2nd end part 65 side (refer FIG. 12, 13). In the main body portion 62 that is largely developed, an upper surface 66 having a substantially triangular shape is formed. The triangle on the upper surface 66 is an isosceles triangle that is inclined with the virtual vertex P4 in contact with the side seal portion 22 in the absence of the powder recovery portion 51 as the lower end and the vertexes P5 and P6 in contact with the joint portion 63 as the upper end, The second end portion 65 is the upper side. The developed main body 62 is stably supported in the vicinity of the vertices P4 to P6 of the upper surface 66.

  As with the case of the pouch container 10, the main body 62 has a spoon insertion portion 69 at the center in the width direction of the main body 62 away from the second end portion 65. The spoon insertion part 69 is a through hole having the same hole size and hole shape as the spoon insertion part 39. That is, the spoon insertion part 69 has a hole dimension through which the dish 42 of the measuring spoon 41 can be inserted in a state in which the main body part 62 is expanded, the first end 64 side being a short side, and the second end part 65 side being a long side. It exhibits a trapezoidal shape when viewed from above. Note that the spoon insertion portion 69 can be expanded to the first end portion 64 to function as the powder recovery unit 51.

  The spoon holding part of the present embodiment supports the handle 43 of the measuring spoon 41 inserted into the spoon insertion part 69 by the front half part 60a and the back half part 60b of the main body part 62 as in the first embodiment. To do. That is, in this embodiment, the whole spoon holding part is formed by the main body part 62 of the downward gusset sheet 60.

  According to the pouch container 50 having the above configuration, the measuring spoon 41 is placed inside the container in a state where the measuring spoon 41 is not buried in the powder 40 or the powder 40 adheres to the handle 43 by the spoon holder. Can hold. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 14, the powder 40 can be scraped and weighed.

  In the pouch container 50, the second end portion 65 that functions as a scraping portion faces slightly upward from the container width direction, and the second end portion 65 is positioned above the container as compared with the upward gusset sheet 30. For this reason, since the distance between the second end portion 65 and the take-out port 18 is reduced, it becomes easier to operate the measuring spoon 41. For example, even if the operation width of the measuring spoon 41 is widened, it is difficult for the measuring spoon 41 to be caught on the end of the container and the like, and good operability can be obtained.

  Also in the pouch container 50, the opening of the take-out port 18 is developed so that the front half 60a and the back half 60b holding the measuring spoon 41 have a plate shape substantially parallel to each other. The insertion part 69 is greatly opened. At this time, the measuring spoon 41 can be pulled out from the spoon insertion portion 69. After use, the measuring spoon 41 is inserted into the spoon insertion part 69 again and the outlet 18 is closed, so that the handle 43 is sandwiched between the front half part 60a and the back half part 60b, and the measuring spoon 41 becomes stable. Retained.

  Further, since the upper surface 66 of the main body 62 is a substantially triangular slope with the second end portion 65 positioned upward, the powder 40 tends to accumulate on the upper surface 66, but the powder 40 is stored in the powder recovery unit 51. And it can return to the filling part 15 from the spoon insertion part 69. FIG. For this reason, as in the case of the upward gusset sheet 30, the upper surface 66 can be kept hygienic.

<Third Embodiment>
With reference to FIGS. 15 to 17, the pouch container 70 according to the third embodiment and the modified example 70 x will be described in detail. Here, the same components as those of the above-described embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted.

  As shown in FIGS. 15 to 17, the pouch container 70 includes an upward gusset sheet 71 as an interior sheet that forms a spoon holding part and a scraping part, as with the pouch container 10. The pouch container 70 has the same configuration as the pouch container 10 except for the configuration related to the upward gusset sheet 71. The upward gusset sheet 71 is also provided by a long body having a cut portion, as in the case of the upward gusset sheet 30. And also in the pouch container 70, the powder 40 of the filling part 15 can be taken out from the opening part of the upward gusset sheet 71 in which the main-body part 73 does not exist.

  The upward gusset sheet 71 has a point where a joining portion 74 is formed leaving the upper end portion and the lower end portion of the connecting portion 77, and a point having a spoon insertion portion 78 formed by cutting the main body portion 73 from the second end portion 76. And the point from which the powder recovery part 79 is provided between the front and back sheets differs from the upward gusset sheet 30.

  The spoon holding part of the present embodiment is formed by the main body part 73 of the upward gusset sheet 71. The spoon insertion part 78 formed in the main body part 73 is a notch through which the handle 43 of the measuring spoon 41 can be inserted. Specifically, it is formed in the portion where the crease line 72 is formed from the second end 76 to the vicinity of the central portion in the width direction of the main body 73. The spoon insertion part 78 may be formed by, for example, a single cut line cut along the crease line 72, or may be formed by cutting a sheet into a substantially U-shape.

  In the spoon holding part of the present embodiment, the handle 43 of the measuring spoon 41 inserted through the spoon insertion part 78 from the second end part 76 is supported by the front half part 71c and the back half part 71d of the main body part 73. In the state where the take-out port 18 is closed and the main body portion 73 is folded, the handle 43 is strongly sandwiched between the front half portion 71c and the back half portion 71d. Becomes weaker and the measuring spoon 41 can be easily removed. That is, in this embodiment, the whole spoon holding part is formed by the main body part 73 of the upward gusset sheet 71.

  The powder recovery unit 79 has a function of returning the powder 40 to the filling unit 15 similarly to the powder recovery unit 51, and is provided by not forming the joint 74 at a part of the lower end of the main body 73. It is done. That is, in the main body portion 73, the joint portion 74 is formed only at the lower end portion located in the vicinity of the second end portion 76. In the other portions, the front and back sheets and the main body 73 are not joined, and an opening (gap) between which the powder 40 can be dropped into the filling portion 15 between the front and back sheets and the main body 73. A powder recovery unit 79 is provided.

  In the unfolded state of the main body 73, the pouch container 70 presses the dish 42 of the measuring spoon 41 that holds the powder 40 against the second end 76 facing the opening without being joined to the front and back sheets. The body 40 can be worn and measured. In other words, the second end portion 76 functions as a scraping portion, but due to a decrease in rigidity due to the spoon insertion portion 78, the scraping property is inferior compared to the case where the second end portion 35 of the main body portion 32 is used.

16 and 17 show a pouch container 70x which is a modification of the pouch container 70.
The upward gusset sheet 71x of the pouch container 70x is different from the upward gusset sheet 70 in that it has two main body portions 73a and 73b. The main body portion 73b has the same form as the main body portion 73 and functions as a spoon holding portion. On the other hand, the main body portion 73a is different from the main body portion 73b in that it does not have a through hole or a cut and does not function as a spoon holding portion.

  In the pouch container 70x, the second end portion 76a of the main body portion 73a functions exclusively as a scraping portion. As described above, since the spoon insertion portion 78 does not exist in the second end portion 76a, the main body portion 73a exhibits high rigidity and good cutting performance. That is, the pouch container 70x has a configuration in which a plurality of main body portions are provided, one of which is a spoon holding portion and the other one is a scraping portion.

<Fourth Embodiment>
The pouch container 80 according to the fourth embodiment and its modification example 80x will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. Here, the same components as those in the above embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, or the description thereof is omitted by omitting the reference numerals.

  As shown in FIGS. 18 and 19, the pouch container 80 is provided with an upward gusset sheet 81 as an interior sheet that forms a spoon holding part and a scraping part, similarly to the pouch container 70. In the upward gusset sheet 81, a main body portion 73x that does not have the spoon insertion portion 78 is provided instead of the main body portion 73b, and a joint portion 82 is formed only in the main body portions 73a and 73x and is formed in the connecting portion 83. It is different from the upward gusset sheet 71 in that there is no point. The pouch container 80 has two spoon insertion portions 84 through which the dish 42 of the measuring spoon 41 can be inserted between the two main body portions 73a and 73x. The spoon insertion part 84 is an opening (gap) between the connection part 83 and the front and back sheets provided by not forming the joint part 82 in the connection part 83 of the upward gusset sheet 81.

  In the spoon holding part of the present embodiment, the handle 43 of the measuring spoon 41 inserted into the spoon insertion part 84 is supported by the top sheet 11 or the back sheet 12 and the connecting part 83. Note that the measuring spoon 41 may be inserted into any of the spoon insertion portions 84. In the measuring spoon 41, the handle 43 is strongly held between the top sheet 11 or the back sheet 12 and the connecting portion 83 in a state where the take-out port 18 is closed. That is, in this embodiment, a part of the spoon holding portion is formed by the upward gusset sheet 81. On the other hand, in a state where the main body portions 73a and 73x are deployed, the connecting portion 83 is bent and the opening size of the spoon insertion portion 84 is increased, and the measuring spoon 41 can be easily pulled out from the insertion portion. In addition, the spoon insertion part 84 functions also as a powder collection | recovery part.

FIG. 20 shows a pouch container 80x which is a modification of the pouch container 80.
The upward gusset sheet 81x of the pouch container 80x is different from the upward gusset sheet 81 only in the form of the connecting portion 83x. The connecting portion 83x includes a plurality of (four) bent portions 85 formed along the vertical direction, and when each bent portion 85 is extended, the width direction length thereof is longer than the width direction length of the connecting portion 83. It has become. That is, in the upward gusset sheet 81x, the length of the connecting portion 83x that is not joined to the front and back sheets is longer than the interval between the main body portion 73a and the main body portion 73x. Thereby, the spoon insertion part 84x whose opening dimension is larger than the spoon insertion part 84 and is easy to insert the measuring spoon 41 is obtained. In the pouch container 80x, due to the opening of the take-out port 18, the connecting portion 83x protrudes toward the inside of the container and is largely separated from the front and back sheets, and the spoon insertion portion 84x is greatly opened.

  Note that the spoon insertion portions 84 and 84 x may be provided between either the top sheet 11 or the back sheet 12 and the upward gusset sheet 81.

<Fifth Embodiment>
The pouch container 90 according to the fifth embodiment will be described in detail with reference to FIG. Here, the same components as those in the above embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, or the description thereof is omitted by omitting the reference numerals.

  As shown in FIG. 21, the pouch container 90 includes a belt-like sheet 91 provided over the entire width of the front and back sheets as an interior sheet that forms a spoon holding part and a scraping part. The belt-like sheet 91 does not have a gusset structure, and is joined only to the inner surface of the back sheet 12 at a portion other than the side seal portion 22. In addition, the strip | belt-shaped sheet | seat 91 may be joined to the inner surface of the surface sheet 11, and may be provided in both the surface sheet 11 and the back surface sheet 12. FIG.

  The belt-like sheet 91 includes an overhang portion 92 having a structure similar to that of the connecting portion 83x of the pouch container 80x. The overhang portion 92 is provided at the center in the width direction of the belt-like sheet 91, and forms a spoon insertion portion 94 between the back surface sheet 12. The portions other than the overhang portion 92 of the belt-like sheet 91 are joint portions 93 that are joined to the inner surface of the back sheet 12. The extended portion 92 is provided with four bent portions 95 formed in the vertical direction, and the length in the width direction when the bent portions 95 are extended is a joint portion 93 separated by the extended portion 92. It is longer than the distance between each other.

  In the pouch container 90, as in the case of the pouch container 80x, the protruding portion 92 protrudes toward the inside of the container due to the opening of the extraction port 18, and is largely separated from the front and back sheets. More specifically, the back sheet 12 is bent by the opening of the take-out port 18, and the joining portion 93 is also bent accordingly, and the length in the width direction of the protruding portion 92 is reduced. And the overhang | projection part 92 which is not joined to the back surface sheet 12 curves toward the surface sheet 11 side, and projects to the container inside side. Therefore, the spoon insertion part 94 with a large opening dimension is obtained.

  In the pouch container 90, the powder 40 can be crushed and weighed by pressing the dish 42 of the measuring spoon 41 against the lower end portion 96 of the overhang portion 92. That is, the lower end portion 96 that is not joined to the back sheet 12 and protrudes toward the inside of the container functions as a scraping portion.

In addition, the said embodiment can be changed in design suitably in the range which does not impair the objective of this invention.
For example, although the spoon insertion part was provided in the said embodiment and this penetration part comprised as a part of spoon holding | maintenance part, the form which does not have a spoon insertion part may be sufficient. Specifically, in the pouch container 70x, a form without the spoon insertion part 78 can be exemplified. In this case, for example, the measuring spoon 41 can be placed and held on the two main body portions.

  A plurality of interior sheets may be provided. Or in addition to the interior sheet which forms a spoon holding | maintenance part, you may provide another interior sheet which forms a scraping part, for example. Specifically, a belt-like sheet 91 that forms a part of the spoon holding portion may be provided, and another interior sheet (gazette sheet) that forms a cut-off portion may be provided below the belt-like sheet 91.
