Abstract

An easily rupturable portion, which is ruptured when an inner pressure of a can container is raised extraordinary and the domed portion is thereby deformed to protrude outwardly of the can container, is formed on an outer face side of the domed portion and situated in the close vicinity of an outer circumferential portion of the domed portion continuing into a seamed portion. For example, the easily rupturable portion is ruptured to release the contents of the can container when an inner pressure of a can container is raised extraordinary by heat or the like to deform the domed portion of a bottom lid to protrude outwardly within the outer circumferential portion of the domed portion. Therefore, a gas can be released without blowing off a portion of the can container
