HANDLE OF PLASTIC BOTTLE, AND BOTTLE HAVING HANDLE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate attaching/detaching of a handle to/from a recess of the body section of a bottle by constituting the handle out of a bendable handle main body and a locking member which prevents the handle main body from bending. SOLUTION: This handle is constituted of the handle main body 1 and the locking member 2. In this case, the handle main body 1 has a pair of supportings 13 and 14 wherein protrusions 13a and 14a for engagement are provided on the external surface of the distal end sections in the same direction, at the top and the bottom on the internal surface of a vertically long gripping section 12. Also, a lateral groove 15 which makes the gripping section 12 bendable inward is provided at the central section of the gripping section 12. The locking member 2 is fitted on the gripping section 12 and prevents the gripping section 12 from bending. The locking member 2 comprises a head section 21 and a sheath section 22. In this case, the head section 21 is located at the upper end of the gripping section 12, and comes into contact with the wall surface of the bottle. The sheath section 22 is integrally formed to be long under the head section 21. The sheath section 22 covers three side surfaces excepting the internal surface of the gripping section 12. Also, the sheath section 22 has a protruding line 23 which is fitted in a vertical groove 11 provided on both side surfaces of the gripping section 12 and prevents the gripping section 12 from bending on the internal surface of both sides.
