The first portion is adhered on the surface of the flange portion, and the second portion is adhered on the surface of the extension portion. The depression line has a protruding portion at the center part of the depression line. The protruding portion extends along a direction from the first portion toward the second portion, and protrudes beyond the bending line. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A sealed container structure, comprising: a carrying container having a container body having an opening on a side of the container body; a flange portion arranged at the periphery of the opening and having a first adhering surface facing away from the container body; an extension portion connected to a side of the flange portion and having a second adhering surface facing away from the container body, wherein the first adhering surface is coplanar with the second adhering surface; a partial severance groove formed at a first connecting portion of the carrying container where the extension portion and the flange portion are connected to each other; and a sealing film having a first portion adhered to the first adhering surface and covering the container body; and a second portion adhered to the second adhering surface and connected to the first portion, wherein a bending line is formed at a second connecting portion of the carrying container where the extension portion and the flange portion are connected to each other, corresponding to the partial severance groove, and configured to break and sever the extension portion from the flange portion; wherein a depression line is formed on the sealing film and having a first end point, a second end point and a protruding portion whose vertical projection on a line defined by the first and second end points is between the first and second end points; and wherein the depression line extends from a first side of a portion of the first portion adjacent to the bending line to a second side of the portion of the first portion adjacent to the bending line, the first end point is located at the first side, the second end point is located at the second side, and the protruding portion extends along a direction from the first portion toward the second portion and protrudes beyond the bending line. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The sealed container structure according to claim 1, wherein the depression line is recessedly formed on a surface of the sealing film facing away from the container body along a direction from the surface facing away from the container body to the container body. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The sealed container structure according to claim 2, the carrying container has a central axis extending from a center of the flange portion of the container body to a center of the extension portion, and the protruding portion of the depression line overlaps with the central axis. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The sealed container structure according to claim 3, the depression line further having a first line segment between the first end point and the protruding portion, and a second line segment between the second end point and the protruding portion, wherein the first line segment and the second line segment are symmetrically arranged relative to the central axis. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The sealed container structure according to claim 4, wherein the first line segment is obliquely arranged on the surface of the sealing film relative to the central axis and the bending line along a direction from the first end point to the central axis and the bending line, and the second line segment is obliquely arranged on the surface of the sealing film relative to the central axis and the bending line along a direction from the second end point to the central axis and the bending line. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The sealed container structure according to claim 5, the second adhering surface further having a depression portion adjacent to the bending line, wherein a shape and a position of the depression portion corresponds to a shape and position of a portion of the protruding portion protruding beyond the bending line. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The sealed container structure according to claim 6, wherein arc line segments are formed where the protruding portion is connected with the first second line segment and where the protruding portion is connected with the second line segment. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The sealed container structure according to claim 7, wherein an accommodating space is formed inside of the container body for accommodating a volatile substance. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The sealed container structure according to claim 8, further comprising a gas permeable membrane disposed inside of the container body and between the opening and the volatile substance. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The sealed container structure according to claim 9, further comprising an aromatic container having a base on which the container body of the carrying container is disposed; and an upper cover configured to cover on top of the base and provided with a plurality of vents, wherein when the carrying container is disposed inside of the aromatic container and the sealing film is removed, the opening of the container body communicates with the vents of the upper cover.
