Abstract
A straw ( 3 ) capable of being detachably inserted into the straw insert hole ( 2 ) of a press-deformable container ( 1 ) having the straw insert hole ( 2 ), characterized by comprising a locking part ( 4 ) for stopping the insertion of the straw ( 3 ) into the straw insert hole ( 2 ) and a through hole ( 5 ) positioned apart from the locking part ( 4 ) by a distance (W) almost the same as the thickness of a container forming material having the straw insert hole ( 2 ).
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A straw 3 adapted to be removably inserted into a press deformable container 1 through a straw insert opening 2 of the container 1 , which is characterized by having a stopping part 4 for stopping itself from being inserted through the straw insert opening 2 and an inlet hole 5 at a position distant from the position of the stopping part 4 by a distance substantially equal to the thickness W of the container-forming material having the straw insert opening 2 .
2 . The straw according to claim 1 , characterized by having tear-out perforations at a position distant from the stopping part 4 by said distance, the part surrounded by the tear-out perforations being adapted to be torn out to make the inlet hole 5 .
3 . The straw according to claim 1 , characterized in that the longitudinal end thereof which is adapted to be inserted into the container 1 is a closed end 7 .
4 . The straw according to claim 1 , characterized by having at least one inner tube 8 fitted therein rotatably and longitudinally slidably, the inner tube 8 being adapted to be slid or rotated to open and close the inlet hole 5 .
5 . The straw according to claim 4 , characterized in that the inner tube 8 has an inner hole 9 at a position distant from the position of the stopping part 4 by said distance and is adapted to be rotated to interconnect the inner hole 9 and the inlet hole 5 .
6 . The straw according to claim 1 , wherein the stopping part 4 is a snap fit part, a groove fit part, a stop collar, a shoulder or a protrusion
7 . The straw according to claim 1 , wherein a part of or the whole of the section between the stopping part 4 and the pour outlet 32 is bellows 10 .
8 . A straw 3 adapted to be removably inserted into a press-deformable container 1 through a straw insert opening 2 of the container 1 , which is characterized by comprising an outer tube 3 a , a middle tube 3 b , and an inner tube 3 c , the middle tube 3 b and the inner tube 3 c being fitted into the outer tube 3 a longitudinally slidably, the outer tube 3 a having a stopping part 4 for stopping itself from being inserted through the straw insert opening 2 and an inlet hole 5 at a position distant from the position of the stopping part 4 by a distance substantially equal to the thickness W of the container-forming material having the straw insert opening 2 , and the inlet hole 5 being opened and closed by sliding at least the middle tube 3 b.
9 . The straw according to claim 8 , wherein the stopping part 4 is a snap fit part, a groove fit part, a stop collar, a shoulder or a protrusion 10 . The straw according to claim 8 , wherein a part of or the whole of the section between the stopping part 4 and the pour outlet 32 is bellows 10 .Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
