First Embodiment FIG. 1 is a three-dimensional sectional view of the first embodiment. In Example 1, the unsealing device (1) is composed of an unsealing device (1) and a small container (2), and a can-shaped projection is formed on the upper lid of the can. A groove-like cut is made around the opening device (1). The small container (2) is a simple plastic container and is adhered from below with the opening device (1) as a lid. To use a can equipped with the small container (2) having the above structure, when the opening device (1) is pressed, the notch cut around the can opens and the opening device (1) is pushed down. As a result, the small container (2) is peeled off from the lid, and the substance contained in the small container (2) can be mixed with the substance of the can body.

Second Embodiment FIG. 2 is a sectional view of a second embodiment. In Example 1, the small container (2) was adhered to the opening device (1), but in Example 2, it was placed below the opening device (1), and there was a plate (3) below it. The small container (2) is sandwiched between the opening device (1) and the plate (3). This method is a method of crushing the small container (2) by pushing down the opening device (1). The plate (3) used in this method serves to support the small container (2), and any other material that can support the small container (2) may be used.

Third Embodiment FIG. 3 is a sectional view of the third embodiment. In Example 2, the method of pressing the small container (2) against the plate (3) to crush it was adopted, but in Example (3), the blade (4) was used instead of the plate (3), and the opening device (1 ), The blade (4) cuts open the small container (2) pushed down. In this method, the blade (4) cuts open the small container (2) from below, but other methods such as a method in which the blade (4) is pushed down from above may be used.

Fourth Embodiment FIG. 4 is a sectional view of the fourth embodiment. In Example 1, Example 2 and Example 3, the number of small containers (2) was one, but in Example 4, it was increased to two and the unsealing device (1) attached to the small containers (2). Further, in the second and third embodiments, the number of plates (3) or blades (4) is increased to two, respectively. Although the number of small containers (2) is set to two in the fourth embodiment, the number of small containers (2) may be increased if necessary.

Fifth Embodiment FIG. 5 shows a pull tab (5) used in the fifth embodiment. FIG. 6 is a plan view showing the case where the pull tab (5) is used. The pull tab (5) works in the same way as the button type opening device (1) used in Examples 1, 2 and 3, ie, the container (2) is attached to the plate (3) or the blade (4). It works by pressing against. The pull tab (5) uses A as a fulcrum, B as a force point, and C as an action point according to the principle of leverage. In FIG. 6, a pull tab (5) which can be rotated is arranged at the center of the upper lid of the can. A groove-like cut is made in the upper lid of the portion directly above the small container (2) so that it is easy to tear. To use the pull tab (5), rotate the pull tab (5) and align the point of action C with the notch above the small container and pull the force point B to lower the point of action C by the principle of leverage. You can push down the top lid that has been cut from the notch. In the fifth embodiment, when the number of small containers (2) is increased to two, the number of opening devices (1) is also increased to two, but when the pull tab (5) is used for the opening device instead of the button type opening device (1). Since it can be rotated and used any number of times, when the number of small containers is large, the pull tab (5) can be used to clean the lid part.

Sixth Embodiment FIG. 7 is a sectional view of the sixth embodiment. In the sixth embodiment, the upper lid of the can is rotatable, and the blade (4) can be rotated in conjunction with the movement of the upper lid. A small container (2) is then arranged outside the blade (4). In this method, when it is desired to open the small container (2), the blade (4) is rotated to cut open the small container (2).

Seventh Embodiment FIG. 8 is a sectional view of the seventh embodiment. In Example 6, the blade (4) is placed inside and the small container (2) is placed outside it. However, as shown in FIG. 8, the small container is placed inside and the blade (4) is placed on the outside. Good. Further, in FIGS. 7 and 8, the small container (2) and the blade (4) are attached to the upper portion of the can, but they may be attached to the bottom side.

Eighth Embodiment FIG. 9 is a sectional view of the eighth embodiment. In Example 6 and Example 7, the number of small containers (2) was one, but in Example 8, the number of small containers (2) was increased to two as shown in FIG. Although the case where the number of the small containers (2) is two is shown in the eighth embodiment, the number may be increased if necessary.

Ninth Embodiment FIG. 10 is a sectional view of a ninth embodiment. Although the case where the number of the small containers (2) is two or more was shown in Example 8, when opening the small containers (2) by rotating the blade (4), all the small containers (2) are opened. It is inconvenient because it is lost. In Example 9, the small container (2) was moved from the outside to the inside so that the small container (2) can be selected and opened when there are two or more small containers (2). .. In FIG. 10, since the blade (4) is provided inside the upper part of the can, the container (2) to be opened is directed toward the inside of the can, that is, when the blade (4) is rotated, the blade (4) is Move it to a distance and do not move the small container (2) that you do not want to open from the original place, that is, the place where the blade (4) does not reach. If the blade (4) is rotated in the above state, only the small container (2) moved to the vicinity of the blade (4) can be selected and opened. In FIG. 10, the blade (4) is arranged inside the upper part of the can and the small container (2) is arranged outside thereof, but as shown in Example 7, the small container (2) is arranged inside the upper part of the can. Alternatively, the blade (4) may be arranged on the outside thereof.
