The old newspaper storage container according to the present invention has a substantially rectangular bottom plate having a concave groove formed in the center of the upper surface, and a side plate standing upright from a pair of opposed edges of the bottom plate. The inner container is
It is characterized by being housed in the outer container with a lid so as to be insertable and removable.

[0006] In the old newspaper storage container of the present invention, the material of the inner container is not particularly limited. For example, a hard thermoplastic synthetic resin such as polypropylene (PP) or high-density polyethylene (HDPE), or a fiber-reinforced unsaturated resin. Polyester resin (F
RP), metal, wood, wood synthetic resin composite (WPC),
Glass fiber reinforced polyurethane foam and the like can be mentioned.

[0007] The bottom plate and the side plate constituting the inner container may be formed integrally, or may be formed separately, and fixed by means such as welding, bonding, nailing, or the like. It may be assembled or disassembled by using the above, or any of them may be used. When the inner container can be disassembled into a bottom plate and a side plate, there is an advantage that the occupied volume during transportation and storage can be reduced.

[0008] The size of the inner container is not particularly limited,
The size of the bottom plate is slightly larger than the A4 size so that old folded newspapers and magazines can be stored, and the height of the side plate is
It is preferable that the old newspaper can be taken out of the outer container by holding the upper end of the old newspaper for one month.

The shape of the bottom plate is not particularly limited, but when the material is a hard thermoplastic synthetic resin or a metal, except for the concave groove portion, in order to reduce the amount of raw materials used and to reduce the weight. It is preferable to form a lattice such as vertical and horizontal, diagonal, and radial.

In the center of the upper surface of the bottom plate, a concave groove is formed so that the string can be wound around an old newspaper and bound. Even if the concave groove is a single letter, a cross,
Either may be used.

The cross-sectional shape of the groove is determined in accordance with the cross-sectional shape of the stringing which assists the insertion of the string-shaped body. Appropriately, it is shaped like a letter.

Although the shape of the side plate is not particularly limited, when the material is a hard thermoplastic synthetic resin or metal, the shape of the side plate is reduced so as to reduce the amount of raw materials used and to reduce the weight.
It is preferably in the shape of a picture frame, a vertical reindeer, etc., and it is preferable that a flange edge for preventing deformation is extended at a right angle on the periphery, and that the upper end can be gripped when the inner container is taken out from the outer container. Preferably, a horizontally long through hole through which four fingers except the thumb can be inserted is formed at the upper end.

If both side edges of the side plate are extended inward at a right angle to form a substantially flat Japanese shape with an inward opening in cross section, the old newspaper and the like stored when the inner container is taken out may fall down. It has the advantage that it can be prevented. When the old newspaper is tied up, the stringing may be hooked on the outer surface of the side plate so that the stringing is securely located at hand.

[0014] In the old newspaper storage container of the present invention, the material of the outer container with a lid is not particularly limited.
Hard thermoplastic synthetic resin such as E, FRP, metal and the like. The lid and the outer container are not necessarily limited to the same material, and different materials may be used in combination.

[0015] The shape of the outer container with a lid is not particularly limited as long as the lid is fitted over the opening of the outer container body so that rainwater does not enter inside. The lid is preferably attached to the outer container body so as to be rotatable up and down around one end so as not to be lost when the lid is opened. The means for attaching the lid to the outer container body is not particularly limited, and may be any of hinged, pivoted, and pivoted. A handle or recess may be provided at the lower end of the front surface of the lid to facilitate opening and closing of the lid.

The size of the outer container with a lid is not particularly limited as long as the inner container can be gripped and put in and out. In order to be able to separate and store old newspapers and old magazines having gravure printed pages and bound with wires, the two inner containers may be sized so that the side plates are juxtaposed and can be accommodated. .
