Description

Compact disk (CD) packing box hinge type storing apparatus and marketing method
The cross reference of related application
This application has was submitted with effective open file of two parts of US Patent trademark offices that relate to the application who discloses here on May 23rd, 2005.The name of these two parts of application documents is called " Container or Dispenserfor CD or DVD Cases " and " Compact Disk Case with Compartments for SampleMerchandise and Marketing Materials ".
Technical field
The optics " compact disk " (" CD " of when transportation and sale, protecting CD that the present invention relates to; " DVD " or " CD ") container (being also referred to as " CD packing box " or " CD box "); and device, can utilize one or more spaces in this holding device deposit, transport, show and sale with other products of CD.Particularly, the present invention mainly comprises the modification of the CD box of cases of otherwise standard design, and this is revised as the path that enters untapped zone is provided in the CD box.In the present invention, provide space in the CD box, and prepared the path that leads to this space for the CD product sold in this CD box the small relatively change of standard CD box.In some modification of the present invention, this modification and change comprise the parts that are used for limiting the retainer in the space of inserting in the CD box, can place other products in this retainer.But,, be used for will providing the path that leads to the free space in this CD box separately at the retainer of CD box (being commonly referred to " CD tray " or " pallet ") location CD if suitably form according to the present invention.According to the present invention, be used to keep the maximum available space of overage to be present in usually near the some place or point of bottom and top cover bonded assembly movable " hinge ".
The present invention also is provided for showing to the potential customer marketing method of two or more products.By this method, overage can be placed near the hinge of formed CD box in the space according to the present invention, this overage can be deposited and transport with CD and optical disk cartridge, finally presents to potential buyer.These overages can be solid-state or liquid, single or multiple, and normally consumable (as perfume), can present to client very boldly in " point of sale " of CD in the time of in being accommodated in according to CD box of the present invention.On the other hand, CD can be used as " award " or gift provides, and value is lower usually, can accept with perfume or the purchased person of other overages in the point of sale.Under any circumstance, this CD of apparatus of the present invention and the overage of utilizing no matter where offers client, and this CD and overage are sold and " co-market " by showing significantly in same CD box.
Because " multifunctional digital code dish " (" DVDs ") is similar to the size and dimension of compact disk with other CDs of great majority, DVD box and other boxes can form CD box with modification of the present invention identical lead to its in-to-in path.As a result, when overage is arranged in other boxes, according to the present invention, similarly the co-market chance will be more.
Background technology
Compact disk has replaced the lacquer disk(-sc) disc gradually and has been used to write down audio and video files, also is used for the non-audio-video recording digital code data of computer documents storage.As a result, having produced has record or blank CD in a large number, is used for the different application field, and must come due care and these dishes of identification with storage box.Usually, comprise that the rigidity transparent plastic box of three parts is used for this purpose, this CD box is usually by forming as cinnamic hard plastic material.Three parts of standard CD box generally include (1) main body, or box bottom or bottom, wherein be placed with (2) CD tray, it forms usually by formed depression in the pallet or depression and keeps CD, (3) top cover (or " protecgulum "), it forms and is sealed on formed inner space in the main body.Usually in base box, be provided with hinge.This hinge forms together with the hole mutual action in the main body by the pin on the protecgulum.On the tab that the pin of hinge is formed on a edge from protecgulum, extend in the end at this edge, and the hole is formed near the corresponding edge of main body and at the place, end at this edge.
The standard CD box is formed asymmetrically around the CD of its maintenance as a whole, makes the hole and the pin that form hinge be formed on holding outside the required zone of this CD in this box.By this layout, the protecgulum of standard light tray salver can cover the CD that is placed in the main body fully, but protecgulum can not cover the whole front side of this CD box.On the contrary, there is an essence to open wide and common no space exceeding the cd diameter part that is placed in the box just.This space (" hinge space ") is formed in the standard CD box by each wall or plate, usually at its bottom (when the CD box keeps flat) or back (when box when its edge is erect) define by the part of CD box main body.Another part of main body also limits hinge space in the end of CD box " spine " edge, and two extentions of main body limit the end of hinge space, and pan is formed on wherein.In the standard CD box, hinge space also is defined in its top (when the CD box keeps flat) or front portion (when box during along the setting of its edge) by the extendible portion of the outer CD tray of the diameter that keeps CD usually.CD tray in the standard CD box is in hinge space and keep limiting interior wall between the CD box inside of CD, pallet limit wherein can holding optical disk depression.CD tray can remain in the position in the main body rigidly by being formed on pin on the pallet, and tray pins is inserted in the corresponding aperture that is formed in the CD box main body.
Other variations on the unit design are arranged in nearest thin CD box, and the space that wherein is formed with hinge keeps opening wide in its bottom (or back).In these changed, because the box top extends to outside the diameter that is placed on the CD in the CD box, the inside of CD box and hinge space were almost completely defined by the top of box.During these changed, ridge edges was formed on the edge at box top, and tab or wall are formed on the box top limiting the end in this space, and as combined action to form the end-fitting sheet of hinge.End-fitting sheet in these thin boxes has the hole that is formed on its end usually, these holes can with formed pin mutual action on the extendible portion that extends from the CD box main body.The opening at the back side, space, hinge place is the result who reduces the intrinsic geometric configuration of box thickness in these thin boxes, and satisfactory owing to used less plastic material to form box on this design overall.Can not bearing ratio because the slim design of these thin boxes, near the space that can be used for storing the hinge are too little usually be printed on the more thing of identifying information on the paper in these boxes.
The multiple arrangement that has developed three parts of standard CD box is used for CD in the CD box to be stored or shows overage, and these arrange the space of attempting to utilize adjacent hinge usually.Similarly, the purpose of these layouts is in following two one:
(1) first, near the space in many existing layouts the hinge is used to preserve and attracts client or attract to buy or because the decorative fitting of the decorative purpose when using the CD box later on.
(2) second, the space of adjacent hinge is used to preserve the perfume that keeps with the CD box, also is to attract client, or attracts to buy, or make client deposit CD with the CD box, can smell this fragrance when using CD.
Embodiments of these existing parts of arranging are for from the teeth outwards with the closely similar device of the present invention or have in the device of one or more characteristics of the present invention.In the trial of realization storage availability, demonstration or the flavor characteristics consistent with the purpose of these existing apparatus, other people also change to realize its purpose in the design of standard CD box.The device of these association areas comprises:
People's such as Ganser U.S. Patent number 5,850,912 has disclosed a kind of shell that is used for compact disk that has " information carrier " in the hinge fraction of CD box.
People's such as Biedebach U.S. Patent number 5,893,455 has disclosed a kind of compact disk packing that has spine's insert, is wherein defined the space of complete closed by three of CD box.
The U.S. Patent number 5,971,143 of Yoshioka has disclosed and has packed with the compact disk that produces ornament and fragrance effects a kind of having by the space of filling in the CD box hinge fraction.
It seems that the appearance in the invention of these patent disclosures and these products can realize its purpose separately.As mentioned above, these purposes comprise article or material are placed near the hinge the space, attract the potential customer with decorative article or material with " attracting eyeball ", or these article or material are placed in the space of adjacent hinge, when weighing the attractive force of various products, the potential customer attracts to buy.The purpose of the invention of existing patent disclosure is also included within placement perfume in the space of adjacent hinge, and perfume can volatilize when the buyer uses the CD box then.Because client will consider dulcet benefit when buying, carry fragrance and make and can smell this fragrance when the buyer uses the CD box, this in fact with realize attracting or sell to attract function identical with ornament.
But with of the present invention different fully, this can be discussed in more detail below by these existing purposes of inventing realization.And purpose of the present invention comprises the modification of CD box of cases of otherwise standard design so that the passage that leads to the hinge space that is used to carry second product to be provided, and this second product can together be sold with first product that resides on the CD valuably.This first product can be music, image, works content or software, even the simple digital data useful to client.This second product can be the pen of perfume, candy, mark CD, towel or other other any products that can get up with CD or its content natural combination on the point of sale of cleaning CD.By as utilizing the clearance spaces in the standard CD box according to modification of the present invention, this usefulness in conjunction with product is to sell by single to pay two products, perhaps considers to buy another product when getting a product.Use device of the present invention, hinge space can two products of cross sell, or sell a product and another product only as the sales promotion equipment of realizing selling.The present invention thereby offer the alerting ability that seller is packed its product is to strengthen the sales promotion influence of any product in client maybe can be placed into the CD box of revising according to the present invention to any product that can write CD the hinge space.The sales promotion influence of this enhancing that realizes by two products in the separation separation of the single CD box of joint sales produces the marketing method of a kind of brand new with the CD box, and this method is commonly referred to as " co-market " or " product group sale " here.Existing patent in this area and product are not described or are provided and can sell the media bearer box of paying two products by single, also do not describe or provide two products that are positioned at the separation separation of single CD box by joint sales to strengthen the device of sales promotion influence, also do not describe or provide " co-market " or " product group sale " of use according to CD box of the present invention.
In the present invention, purpose of the present invention only realizes that by the device that manufacturing is different from the prior art structure device of the present invention only is suitable for realizing above-mentioned purpose.There is not the contriver of patent or product to recognize the passage that the ready CD of leading to box hinge fraction is provided, the co-market product that this passage is designed to be exclusively used in here and is proposed.Owing to have only this device to be designed to the mentality of designing that product colony sells, therefore, comprise that the CD box that method of the present invention that the co-market of using the CD box or product group sell can the application of the invention realizes well.
Summary of the invention
Summary of the invention
With its simplest form, the present invention is the CD box, is used for usually preserving when CD does not use and the protection CD, and shows CD (or being picture and the literal relevant with CD at least) when selling.But optical disk cartridge of the present invention is through revising, and sells with CD in same CD box or other products of sampling provide the within the reach space for preserving or showing to be beneficial to.
As mentioned above, the standard CD box is made up of the rigidity transparent plastic box that comprises three parts, and this plastic casing is by forming as cinnamic hard plastic material.The first of standard CD box is a main body, also is called box bottom or bottom sometimes, can place CD in it.The second portion of standard CD box is a CD tray, and it is used for preserving safely CD or other CDs in main body.When CD tray is suitably located in the standard CD box main body, pallet is positioned on the whole zone of main body securely, and remain on the position in the main body by cooresponding pallet hole in tray pins of extending and the main body near the point four jiaos on the pallet, when pallet was pressed into the position of main body, tray pins extended into the pallet hole.The third part of standard CD is a protecgulum, is used for the capping main body, thereby produces the inside of box.Protecgulum also is provided with cover pins, and cover pins is formed on the place, end at protecgulum one edge usually and from the tab of this edge extension, make each cover pins extend to the corresponding joints sheet, and cover pins is formed near the bight of protecgulum.When protecgulum and main body during in the final position joining, cover pins can extend in the corresponding aperture in the main body, and cover pins can be arranged in the corresponding aperture of main body, forms hinge.When the corresponding emptying aperture rotation of cover pins in main body, the hinge of Xing Chenging makes protecgulum to rotate with the rotation relationship of fixing along it on one side and with the corresponding sides of main body like this.
By this layout of three parts in the standard CD, near the span at line place that the CD box main body is cooperated with protecgulum as hinge or it.As a whole, this spatial extension in the CD box inside in the standard CD box is outside the diameter of the interior CD of preserving of CD box.The standard CD box is formed asymmetrically as a whole thus, makes cover pins and corresponding aperture be formed on outside the required zone of this box holding optical disk.When protecgulum buckles in the position on this box main body, hinge space be located immediately in the standard CD box after the main hole and between, and between cover pins, make whole hinge space be positioned at the CD box, but outside the diameter of the CD of in the pallet of box, being placed just.In this layout, outside the edge of the CD in the pallet in being placed on the CD box of having assembled, the outer boundary of hinge space closes on the pivot axis of being set up by the hinge between main body and the protecgulum in " spine " of CD box to the inner boundary of hinge space just.In this standard CD box configured parts, hinge space at its back side (when box when the edge is erect) define by the part of CD box main body.Another part of main body also limits hinge space at the ridge edges place, two extentions of main body limit the end of hinge, and main hole forms within it.
By this configuration of standard CD box parts, the protecgulum of standard CD box covers the CD that is placed on the accurate position in the pallet fully, and pallet suitably is positioned in the main body of CD box, but protecgulum does not cover hinge space.But by the front portion of the hinge space in antetheca (or " header board ") the coverage criteria CD box.Near the hinge in the standard CD box space is designed in the standard CD box, and to provide anchoring between main body and front side, the parts (for example, cover pins and corresponding aperture) that serve as hinge are attachable on main body and front side.The hinge of standard CD box is its weakest link, thereby often damages.Therefore, increase the top pin and the corresponding hole size of main body, so that the intensity of avoiding this damage to be provided, the header board that covers near the front portion, space of hinge has mainly been filled up the function that additional rigidity is provided, and there, needs additional rigidity to avoid hinge to damage.
In the standard CD box, form the header board that defines near the front side, space of hinge, with extendible portion as CD tray.CD tray also limits near the inwall (" tray wall ") between its complementary space in the space and CD box hinge.Pallet keeps CD (in the depression of pallet), and the extendible portion of tray wall forms the tray wall between near space of hinge and the box inner space, and further extends to form header board.
In the present invention, hinge space produces the space (" hinge space " of the present invention) that has new usability in the present invention through revising, and it is used for transporting, deposit, show and paying other products.These are different with any use before the CD box, and this use needs different structures to realize co-market purpose of the present invention.Like this, though there is a large amount of CD boxes to use near the space of hinge in the prior art, the CD box of prior art is for different purposes, and has the structure that forms according to these orders.For example, the number of C D box of prior art plans to show article, thereby attracts client's attention, still, in this CD box, does not plan to take out shown object from the CD box.As a result, near the space in the CD box of prior art the hinge still is closed, and makes these article still be enclosed in the CD box in use.When each user picked up the CD box of sealing article, the user of CD can see near the article in the space hinge of this CD of being enclosed in box, if but he does not withdraw from pallet from the main body of box, can not contact these article usually.In another example, the number of C D box of prior art intention allows fragrance come out from the CD box in use.As a result, except near the space hinge to the aperture of CD box external opening or mouthful, near the space the hinge in the CD box of the prior art still is closed.Each when the CD box is taken, this mouthful provides the fragrance that will be contained near the space of hinge to be transferred to user's passage.
Different with the CD box of these prior aries, the present invention is for co-market.By using this CD box to realize transporting, depositing, show additional item as prior art, but the present invention is better than the payment that the prior art part is this additional item and product.The present invention is designed so that to be easy to lead to its hinge space especially.The present invention even design especially in some cases, make when reverse downwards in the front side of CD box of the present invention, additional item or product can freely fall from hinge space, thereby only affact by gravity (in patterns more of the present invention) it are fallen outside the hinge space naturally.
During manufacturing, the simplest pattern of the present invention only needs to remove the wall of setting up previously in hinge space when forming the CD box (" header board " is by the extendible portion formation of pallet).Remove header board the front portion of hinge space is opened wide the outside to it in CD box front side, thereby can be placed directly in the hinge space, thus article are placed in the hinge space by the article that keep flat the CD box and will be placed in the box.On this meaning, the hinge space of CD box of the present invention is " opening ", make the article that are placed in the hinge space also can be touched (if CD box of the present invention is not covered by blister plastic packaging or other packing mountings) by the potential customer, the content of hinge space can be stirred and take out with finger tip.By the hinge space of this opening, can transport customer with fitting in multiple product in the hinge space naturally, and the shape that can revise multiple product is with adaptive with this space to music or other amusing products.Like this, for example lipstick or other cosmetics, its size often is packaged into the degree of depth or the width of diameter greater than hinge space, can be packaged into hinge space adaptive.Because hinge space is open, many products greater than the hinge space degree of depth also can transport to the customer in the same manner, as long as the width of this product and hinge space is roughly adaptive, it can protrude in hinge space.
Simple mode of the present invention continue to be described, because additional item or product can freely shift out hinge space, transportation or additional item or product must be held in place when showing.Usually, additional item or product only are held in place by CD box of the present invention being enclosed in thin plastic paper or the plastic wraps.Thin plastic paper can be that bonding is in place, and as known in the existing musical-product industry, perhaps plastic foreskin is pasted the box with parcel CD by fusion, and perhaps the CD box can coat with known " shrink wrapped (shrink wrap) " technology.But the CD box is applied packing, and it provides the obstruction that prevents to move into or shift out hinge space with when the CD box opening of hinge space (or only cover) when packing is in place, up to breakage of packing, peel off or remove fully.When transportation with when showing CD box of the present invention, the obstruction itself that is produced by packing is enough to most additional item and product are held in place, and takes easily when buying and offer client during the taking-up CD from its box simultaneously.In case buy, client can remove unlap (removing unlap from the CD box usually before opening protecgulum) earlier from the front of hinge space, the buyer can pull out additional item or product from hinge space at that time, if or front side points following time of CD box only allow additional item or product answer gravity and fall from hinge space.In this is used, as known in the existing musical-product industry, the thin plastic paper that is used to pack the CD box will prevent to move into or shift out hinge space as obstruction, up to breakage of packing, peel off or remove fully, when transportation with when showing CD box of the present invention, this obstruction that is produced by packing itself much is being enough to bigger additional item and product are held in place in the situations.
In a preferred implementation of simple mode of the present invention, as mentioned above, be positioned at the CD box and not with the pallet of header board, the CD box keeps open in the front portion of hinge space by only forming.But in this form, the structure in the standard CD box, pallet also forms, and comprises all parts, comprising the tray wall between hinge space and pallet remainder.Because when suitably being put into the main body of CD box when its assembling, this tray design becomes slightly to raise, and therefore, in most of the cases, this tray wall is half or half plate.The rising of pallet need form depression or depression to insert CD in pallet.
In another preferred implementation of simple mode of the present invention, because pallet also is set to not have header board, it is open that the CD box will keep, but in this second structure, pallet forms half or half plate that does not have between hinge space and the pallet remainder.Certainly, in this second structure, the space (and the superjacent air space that remains on the CD in the pallet) of hinge space and pallet top is opened wide mutually.Because if these article are unfettered, the any article that are placed in the hinge space can move freely in hinge space, the additional item of co-market or product must be selected (be that additional item or product must be the solid articles of being wider than opening between pallet and the protecgulum, or the material that is held or retrained by the solids container with this size) the article of the open space above those can not move on to CD in the CD box from hinge space and product.
The another preferred implementation of simple mode of the present invention, this embodiment have half or half plate between the remainder of hinge space and pallet, " passage " that open wide that has utilized this design to provide.In this embodiment, the plate of removable paper, cardboard, plastics, metal or other materials can along a direction extend into CD box inner space partly or entirely, can deposit CD in wherein the depression or all or part of top of depression thereby cover.Removable plate also can extend in the other direction into the part or all of of hinge space.Removable plate can have reward voucher or other Promotional Items, and perhaps removable plate only covers the inside of CD or CD box, and perhaps removable plate can cover and be contained in another article of CD box in-to-in (and covering the CD over top that leaves in the pallet depression).In any case, owing to stretch into hinge space, the removable plate of this preferred implementation can utilize in hinge space easily, uses with CD box in-to-in and separates.
As the application example of removable plate, the removable plate of rigidity can be retained in the overage of co-market in the hinge space.On the other hand, flexible removable plate (with some rigid plate) can shift out the CD box along with bending upwardly to outside the hinge space, thereby makes sales force or user that bigger, wideer displaying be arranged.Perhaps, removable plate can provide passage for obtaining to be positioned at reward voucher, the literal on the plate easily or describing material.Removable plate even can be used for by artistical name or other identifying informations hidden on the CD be presented in the CD box purchased up to product, perhaps allow famous artist not with the CD box in the product that held interrelate purchased up to product, thereby give client's portion pleasantly surprised, preserve uncommercial introduction thus in some sense artistic work.By such use, artistic work can be directly interrelates with very business-like enterprise (or the artist does not wish that the customer sets up the direct any enterprise that gets in touch between artist, its works and enterprise).
When using in the method for the invention, three parts of CD box of the present invention form according to the description of the simple mode of the invention described above.Pallet suitably is positioned at the main body of CD box, and the parts that comprise the hinge between protecgulum and the main body engage and make their mutual actions, forms the hinge of CD box thus.CD is placed in the interior pallet depression of main body then, and protecgulum rotates to cover the space (comprising CD) that limits in the main body.Then one or more additional item or product are placed in the hinge space of CD box of the present invention by the front portion of inserting hinge space open.The CD box is by with thin plastic sheet parcel, makes so to be placed in the additional item or the transportation of product before buying in the hinge space, to take or during gravitate, can not drop out from hinge space by client's hand.In some embodiments, by the thin plastic wrapping that covers the CD box is suitably revised, client's additional item of can taking, perhaps client can only buy the product of co-market.In case CD or additional item or product are chosen by the potential customer, this potential customer can be to the CD of co-market and additional item or product combination payment, thereby finishes purchase, and client can unpack.In case client removes unlap, just can be by simply the CD box being oriented its front side down, thus the CD box taking-up with additional item or product from opening.Certainly, client also can use hand, and finger tip, nib or other instruments take out additional item or product from hinge space.In some applications, additional item can be taken at this moment.
In another embodiment of the present invention,, can enter hinge space by the dorsal part of CD box by on the main body of the CD at the rear portion that is located immediately at hinge space box, forming opening.In this embodiment, the pallet of standard CD box can form its common structure, and be built in its common position in the main body of CD box of the present invention, thereby prevent from easily to enter from the front side of CD box, because by above-mentioned body openings, provide from the back side of CD box and to lead to conveniently entering of this additional item or product.In addition, as other patterns of the present invention, additional item or product are held in place with the external packing of CD box, the thin plastic wrappage that external packing is normally above-mentioned.
In another embodiment of the invention, form opening by a side that will form spine in CD box main body upper edge, thereby obtain entering the path of hinge space.This embodiment adopts along near the end the hinge of CD box and along the opening of hinge space length direction, and does not adopt the formed plate that is positioned at main body spine end usually here.In this embodiment, the pallet of standard CD box also can use its structure that often has, because be to be provided with along CD box spine as the convenient path that leads to additional item or product of core of the present invention.On the other hand, the pallet of standard CD box can become simplification even more open structure by removing the tray portion (being header board) that defines the hinge space front portion usually again.Also keep hinge space open so that enter from CD box front portion with along its spine.In addition, as other patterns of the present invention, additional item or product are held in place the thin plastic wrappage that external packing is normally above-mentioned with the external packing of CD box.
In each embodiment of the present invention, can use removable plate sealing opening, these openings provide the convenient path that enters additional item or product according to purpose of the present invention and method.This removable plate can have multiple purpose, but a main purpose of this plate is that additional item or product are held in place in thin plastics packed hinge space of no use regularly, perhaps is used to the additional strength of guaranteeing that additional item or product are held in place in the hinge space of using this packing.This additional strength is needs at for example additional item or product during than heavy articles, and as the perfume of full bottle, its bottle is full of hinge space fully.Especially in the value of additional item or product during much larger than the value of the CD of co-market, article or product are held in place rather than stave thin plastic wrapping and drop to the ground that to smash be very important.
In needing the embodiment of shifting board, this plate need be provided with in place, and is held in place with pin and corresponding aperture, and perhaps this plate can form together with the hinge that separates (or latch) parts, and perhaps this plate can form with the plastics extendible portion of pallet.When removable plate is the extendible portion of pallet, if at thickening once more with before forming header board, it is thinner than the remainder of tray wall to form ground along the plastics of a side of tray wall end, the header board of the pallet of CD box then of the present invention can form movable.This attenuate of plastics forms a line, and along this line, plastics are easier naturally crooked between half and front portion.In this structure, the header board of this pallet can turn round along this line, thereby when pallet suitably was positioned at the main body of CD box, header board can open or close the opening above hinge space.At the opening that uses shifting board to close to lead to hinge space Anywhere, can adopt bolt mechanism to fix the movable end or the movable edge of this plate.Like this, for example, the header board of the pallet of the CD box of production-release design, as previously mentioned, can rotate along the line, constitute, also can form together with little pin or hook by the thin plastics of pallet, when pallet suitably was positioned at the main body of CD box, pin that this is little or hook can insert in CD box main body corresponding aperture or the opening.In the time of in such pin or hook insert this hole of main body or opening, they engage with this hole or opening, thus the movable end of fixed front plate or movable edge.
