Abstract

Box for vegetables, characterized in that it is constituted from the development of a cardboard sheet or similar material, in which a central sector is defined determining the bottom (1) from which emerge two larger lateral faces (2) and (3), and two smaller side faces (5), with the particularity that the bottom (1) has its vertices affected by a chamfer (4), so that the box in its assembly adopts an inverted trunk-pyramid configuration, of rectangular base and chamfered vertices, it being foreseen that the sectors forming the smaller sides (5) are extended after pairs of folding lines (6), in flaps (8) for fixing to the internal faces of the larger walls (2) and (3), with the particularity that from one of the larger sides, after a fold line, a cover (9) is established that has an extension (10) determining a large folding flange, in whose line of folding an enclave slot (11) is established of a fin (12) emerging from the edge of the greater face (3) opposite.

Description

DESCRIPTION

Box for vegetables.

SECTOR OF THE TECHNIQUE

The present invention relates to a box for vegetables, without ruling out that it can be used for other products.

The object of the invention is to provide a box that serves for the direct sale of the product stored in the linear, so that the product in question is properly protected during transport and storage, all with optimal ventilation / cooling conditions .

It is also an object of the invention that the box has a simple, economical structure, and that it facilitates its manual transport.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Numerous types of cardboard boxes or similar are known, intended to contain vegetables, fruits, or the like, boxes that are usually constituted in a single piece, but which present problems when it comes to carrying out its assembly, its closure and its immobilization of said closure during transportation or handling, presenting a configuration that does not make its transport comfortable manually.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The box that is recommended resolves in a fully satisfactory way the problems previously exposed, based on a simple but effective solution.

For this, the box of the invention has the particularity that the cardboard sheet from which the box is obtained, has three contiguous and central sectors that will determine the bottom and the two largest laterals of the box, in a way that that the sector of bottom is prolonged by its ends, and after respective chamfers, in two other lateral sectors that will constitute the smaller laterals, with the particularity that these smaller laterals have two fold lines between which pairs of flaps are established that in the armed they will be attached by means of adhesive or by any other fixing means integral with the inner face of the larger walls.

In addition, the two pairs of folding lines of said lateral expansions of the smaller sides will have a width according to the chamfers of the base previously described, the box being presented in the assembly a truncated-pyramidal configuration, with a rectangular base, with its chamfered vertices, that facilitates the stacking of boxes with its lid open.

As for the lid, it emerges from one of the larger sides of the box, after the corresponding fold line, said lid being provided on its free edge with an extension with an intermediate cut in which a fin derived from the sector is housed. corresponding to the opposite major face of the box, so that that fin, housed in the cut or groove described above stabilizes the lid, while the extension of the free edge determines a second fin, larger, which fits the free edge from the embouchure of the box.

The cover has aeration windows, which are enhanced by holes and grooves provided in the major, minor and bottom faces, with the particularity that in said cover two "U" cutouts are provided, vertically deployable upwards when the lid is closed, determining a pair of hand grip handles to facilitate the transport of the box.

A box with a highly secure and stable closure, easy to transport and with ventilation means that maximize the useful life of the product stored in its breast is thus obtained.

It only remains to note finally that the box can be packaged with others in a larger box, for example grouped four by four, seeing its transport and packaging facilitated in the sales establishment.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

To complement the description that will be made below and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, according to a preferred embodiment of the same, a set of drawings is included as an integral part of said description. where, with illustrative and non-limiting character, the following has been represented:

Figure 1 shows a view of the development in plan of a box for vegetables and vegetables made according to the object of the present invention.

Figure 2 shows a perspective view of the box in an intermediate assembly process.

Figure 3 shows a perspective view of the box properly assembled with its hinged lid open.

Figure 4 shows a perspective view of the box with the lid closed and its handles in inoperative or resting position.

Figure 5 shows a perspective view of the box with the handles of the lid in operative position.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

In view of the figures outlined, it can be seen how the box of the invention is obtained from the development of a sheet, preferably made of cardboard or similar material, in which a central sector determining the background (1) from which they emerge is defined two larger lateral faces (2) and (3), and two smaller lateral faces (5), with the particularity that the bottom (1) presents its vertices affected by a chamfer (4), so that the box in its assembly adopt an inverted trunk-pyramid configuration, with a rectangular base and chamfered vertices.

The sectors forming the smaller sides (5) are extended after pairs of folding lines (6) determining sectors (7) adaptable to the chamfers (4), in flaps (8) for fixing by gluing to the internal faces of the larger walls (2) and (3).

In this way the box is perfectly assembled, which is complemented by the corresponding cover (9), which is derived, after a fold line, of the larger face (2), so that the sector forming said cover (9) ) has a defining extension (10) of a large folding flange, which in correspondence with its fold line includes a groove (11) for locking a fin (12) emerging from the edge of the opposite major face (3).

In this way, and as can be seen in figures 3 and 4, the lid is closed by fitting the tab that determines the extension (10) on the inside edge of the mouth that determines the opposite wall or face (3), after so that the flap (12) is inserted in the slot (11), thus leaving the lid perfectly immobilized.

The cover will be affected by ventilation windows (15), complementary holes and grooves (13) on the sides and bottom for a perfect aeration of the product contained in its core, also having said cover (9) with "U" notches faced, determinants of a pair of handles (14) folding hand grip.
