A synthetic resin bottle includes a body having an upper end and a lower end and a plane cross-sectional shape of a circle, the circle being out-of-round over substantially an entire height of the body. The body includes crests disposed at three or more points on a circumference of the circle at substantially a same interval, wherein a central angle (α) position of each crest fluctuates similarly vertically along the height of the body. The body also includes support ridges formed by the crests in sigmoid curves and disposed at least in three substantially parallel rows at a same interval and panels disposed between adjacent support ridges and provided with slightly swelled panel walls that are reversibly deformable into a dented shape, as seen in cross-sectional plan views.

What is claimed is: 1. A synthetic resin bottle comprising: a body having an upper end and a lower end and a plane cross-sectional shape of a circle, the circle being out-of-round over substantially an entire height of the body, the body including: crests disposed at three or more points on a circumference of the circle at substantially a same interval, wherein a central angle (α) position of each crest fluctuates similarly vertically along the height of the body; support ridges formed by the crests in sigmoid curves and disposed at least in three substantially parallel rows at a same interval; and panels disposed between adjacent support ridges and provided with slightly swelled panel walls that are reversibly deformable into a dented shape, as seen in cross-sectional plan views. 2. The synthetic resin bottle according to claim 1, wherein the crests are disposed at four points on the circumference at an interval corresponding to a substantially equal central angle over substantially the entire height of the body. 3. The synthetic resin bottle according to claim 2, wherein circumferential ribs are disposed at both the upper and lower ends of said body. 4. The synthetic resin bottle according to claim 1, wherein each of said panels is further provided with a slightly hollowed panel wall that is reversibly deformable into a swelled shape, the slightly hollowed panel wall and the slightly swelled panel wall being correspondingly disposed next to each other, as seen in the cross-sectional plan views. 5. The synthetic resin bottle according to claim 4, wherein circumferential ribs are disposed at both the upper and lower ends of said body. 6. The synthetic resin bottle according to claim 1, wherein said body has a plane cross-sectional shape of a perfect circle at both of the upper and lower ends of the body and has a reduced diameter at or near mid-height, the diameter being gradually reduced from a diameter at the upper and lower ends. 7. The synthetic resin bottle according to claim 6, wherein circumferential ribs are disposed at both the upper and lower ends of said body. 8. The synthetic resin bottle according to claim 1, wherein circumferential ribs are disposed at both the upper and lower ends of said body. 9. The synthetic resin bottle according to claim 8, wherein the synthetic resin bottle is a biaxially drawn, blow-molded product made of a polyethylene terephthalate-related resin.
