Container

Abstract

A container can be easily manufactured because the container can be manufactured by die-forming a resin sheet. The container widens toward an outer circumferential side from side parts differing from a long side part on which a hinge part is formed, and is furnished with joining parts having mating surfaces that join with one another, and bent parts at outer circumferential edges of the joining parts, the bent parts being bent between container body parts in a direction in which the two separate from one another. Consequently, the container can maintain a freestanding form on an installation surface using the bent parts which spread so as to mutually separate, as legs. The above facilitates production and makes it possible for the container to stand in a stable state.

1 . A container formed by die-molding a resin sheet, comprising:
 a container part that is constituted by superposing a multiplicity of side parts of a first container body part and a second container body part, which face one another;   a hinge part that links together the first container body part and the second container body part at a first side part of a plurality of side parts;   joining parts in the first container body part and the second container body part, the joining parts thereof widening at least to an outer circumferential edge from a second side part differing from the first side part, and possessing mating surfaces that join with one another; and   bent parts at the outer circumferential edges of the joining parts, the bent parts being bent between the first container body part and the second container body part in a direction in which the two separate from one another.   
     
     
         2 . The container according to  claim 1 , wherein the bent parts are formed along the second side part and a third side part that is adjacent to the second side part in the circumferential direction, and the bent part formed along the second side part and the bent part formed along the third side part are connected to one another in the circumferential direction. 
     
     
         3 . The container according to  claim 1 , wherein a protruding edge part is formed protruding in the outer circumferential direction on the leading edge of the bent parts. 
     
     
         4 . The container according to  claim 1 , wherein a dimension between a leading edge of the bent part on the first container body part and a leading edge of the bent part on the second container body part is less than or equal to a thickness of the container part in a direction in which the first container body part and the second container body part face each other. 
     
     
         5 . The container according to  claim 1 , wherein a dimension between a leading edge of the bent part on the first container body part and a leading edge of the bent part on the second container body part is greater than a thickness of the container part in a direction in which the first container body part and the second container body part face each other. 
     
     
         6 . The container according to  claim 1 , wherein a dimension between a leading edge of the bent part on the first container body part and a leading edge of the bent part on the second container body part is between about 5% to about 150% a thickness of the container part in a direction in which the first container body part and the second container body part face each other. 
     
     
         7 . The container according to  claim 1 , wherein an object contained within the container is an adhesive cleaning tool. 
     
     
         8 . The container according to  claim 7 , wherein an inner surface of the first container body part and an inner surface of the second container body part possess a convex part. 
     
     
         9 . The container according to  claim 7 , wherein an inner surface of the first container body part and an inner surface of the second container body part are coated with a release agent.
