Abstract
Description
されている。このワイングラスでは、携帯が容易になるように、ワインを注いで飲むことができる収容部と、プレートが接続されたステムとを磁石を用いて着脱可能になっており、また、携帯するときは、ステムを収容部に収納することができる。
第1コネクタ部と第2コネクタ部を結合したときに、第1コネクタ底面部と第2コネクタ底面部の間に形成された空隙部は、略水平に形成されたときと比べ、延伸される。空隙部が延伸されることで、組立式容器に液体を注ぎ傾けたとき、空隙部から組立式容器の外部に流出する液体を効果的に減少させることができる。また、第1止水部と第2止水部が対向し配置されることで、空隙部を堰き止め、空隙部から、液体が組立式容器の外部へと漏出することを効果的に防止することができる。また、第2止水部の形状は、先端に行くほど、幅が小さくなるテーパー形状を有することで、第1コネクタ部と第2コネクタ部を組み立てたとき、第2止水部と第1止水部の間の空隙部の長さは、略垂直に設けたときと比べ、延伸され、組立式容器に液体を注ぎ傾けたとき、液体の空隙部外部への移動を効果的に減少させることができる。また、第2止水部と第1止水部が対向し、当接部が形成されることで、空隙部を堰き止め、空隙部から、液体が組立式容器の外部へと漏出することを、効果的に防止することができる。
前記第2コネクタ部の底面部は周方向に延伸する段差部を有し、前記第1コネクタ部の底面部は周方向に延伸する段差部を有し、前記第1コネクタ部と前記第2コネクタ部とが、互いに対向して配置されたとき、前記第2コネクタ部底面の段差部と、前記第1コネクタ底面の段差部が互いに対向し、漏出防止部として機能することを特徴としてもよい。
可能に構成されているので、組立式容器にワインなどの液体を注ぐときは、上部本体部と下部本体部とを結合し、所定の液体を収容可能とすることができる。さらに、組立式容器を携帯したり、棚等に収納するときは、上部本体部と下部本体部とを切り離すことができるため、スペースをとらずに容易に携帯したり、収納することができる。
本実施形態に係る容器は、自由に組み立て、分解、及び収納が可能な容器である。まず、組み立てた状態の組立式容器1について、以下に詳しく説明する。
図1は、第1の実施形態に係る組立式容器1を概略的に説明するための図である。図1に、組立式容器1の斜視図を示す。また、図2に、図1の組立式容器1の断面図を示す。尚、図2には、組立式容器1の中心軸Ax1が示されている。
組立式容器1の上部本体部3は、下部本体部4に結合して一体の容器として構成されるが、一方、下部本体部4から分離することもできるように構成されている。また、下部本体部4に着脱可能に接続固定される脚部30も、下部本体部4から分離することができる。
また、下部本体部4に上部本体部3を収納した状態で、脚部30も、下部本体部4に収納可能に構成されている。以下、組立式容器1の上部本体部3、下部本体部4、及び脚部30を分解して、上部本体部3、及び脚部30を下部本体部4に収納した状態について説明する。
次に、第2実施形態に係る組立式容器101について説明する。組立式容器101も、第1実施形態で説明した組立式容器1と同様に、自由に組み立て、分解、及び収納が可能な容器である。以下に、組み立てた状態の組立式容器101について説明する。なお、組立式容器101において、組立式容器1と同様の構成である箇所については、説明を省略する場合がある。
図10は、第2実施形態に係る組立式容器101を概略的に説明するための図である。図10に、組立式容器101の斜視図を示す。また、図11に、組立式容器101の断面図を示す。尚、図には、組立式容器101の中心軸Ax3が示されている。
貯水部158は、第2止水部153に設けられた凹形状の漏出防止部である。
