Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a lid-integrated hexagonal carton in which a body (main body) having a hexagonal bottom plate is integrally provided with a lid having a similar top plate. The present invention relates to a lid-integrated hexagonal carton in which an outer enclosing plate is provided on each side and an inner enclosing plate provided on the body side is covered with an outer enclosing plate on the lid side.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As is well known, a carton (paper container) is assembled by appropriately bending and forming a blank (pattern) formed in a predetermined developed shape, and has a body (body) having a bottom plate. ), A structure in which a lid having a similar top plate is integrally provided, that is, a so-called lid-integrated carton is preferred because of the advantage that the body and the lid can be formed from a single blank. Also, in response to demands such as changes in design and differentiation, cartons have been made into polygonal shapes.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a conventional example of a lid-integrated hexagonal carton.

In this hexagonal carton 301, a bottom plate 320 and a top plate 330 are formed in a hexagonal shape. And the bottom plate 3
The inner shroud 21 raised from each side of 20 is connected to each other to form a body 302. One of the inner shrouds 21 has a top plate 330 linked to the upper edge thereof. An outer enclosing plate 31 folded down from each side except the link side 5 is connected to each other to form a lid 303.

That is, this hexagonal carton 301 is
The outer enclosing plate 31 is provided on each side of the cover 303 and the inner enclosing plate 21 provided on the body 302 side is covered with the outer enclosing plate 31 on the lid 303 side.

[0006]

However, in such a polygonal carton with a lid, there is a problem in that when the lid is closed, the alignment of the shroud is incorrect.

That is, when the cover 303 is put on the body 302, the outer surrounding plate 31 of the cover 303 and the inner surrounding plate 21 of the body 302 cross each other, or the outer surrounding plate 31 of the cover 303 (The storage section), which makes it difficult to close the lid 303 normally.

Further, when the lid is closed, the alignment of the shroud may be incorrect, so that the user has to correct the alignment of the shroud every time the opening and closing operation is performed.
Then it is very inconvenient.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and when closing a lid, it is possible to prevent an improper alignment of a shroud, and the lid can be reliably opened and closed to provide good operability. It is intended to provide a self-contained hexagonal carton.

[0010]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, a lid-integrated hexagonal carton according to the present invention comprises a body having a hexagonal bottom plate and an inner enclosing plate rising on each side of the bottom plate. A top plate having a hexagonal shape similar to and having one side linked to one of the inner enclosing plates, and a lid having an outer enclosing plate that folds down from each side excluding the linked side of the top plate,
In the lid-body-integrated hexagonal carton in which the lid is placed on the body, a folded-back piece that is folded into the body is provided on the upper edge of the inner enclosing plate adjacent to the linking side with the top plate.

In the lid-integrated hexagonal carton according to the present invention, the shape of the outer enclosing plate adjacent to the linking side of the top plate is changed from the folding point on the linking side to the other side without forming a corner on the linking side. It is preferable to form a substantially circular arc or a substantially triangular shape that is substantially linearly directed to the corner.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a hexagonal carton integrated with a lid according to the present invention.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a lid-integrated hexagonal carton according to a first embodiment of the present invention. And FIG.
FIG. 2 is a developed plan view of the lid-integrated hexagonal carton of FIG. 1.

The lid-integrated hexagonal carton 1 comprises a body 2 (body) having a bottom plate 20 formed in a hexagon, preferably a regular hexagon, and a lid 3 having a top plate 30 similar to the body 2 (body). An outer enclosing plate 31 is provided on each side of the lid 3 so as to cover the inner enclosing plate 21 on the body 2 side, and the lid 3 is covered on the body 2.

The lid-integrated hexagonal carton 1
As shown in FIG. 2, is composed of one blank (pattern), and is assembled by appropriately bending and forming a blank formed in a predetermined developed shape.

The developed shape of the hexagonal carton 1 is as follows.
The bottom plate 20 and the top plate 30 are formed in a hexagonal shape, preferably a regular hexagonal shape, and the top plate 30 on the lid 3 side is set to a somewhat larger size, and has a similar shape in which the thickness is increased by about the thickness of the paper. Has formed. This means that each side of the bottom plate 20
1 is set to be larger than the outer dimension of the body 2 on which the first enclosure 1 is raised, and the outer enclosure 31 is attached to the inner enclosure 21 when the lid 3 is closed.
It is done so that it covers.

Each side of the bottom plate 20 is provided with an inner enclosing plate 2.
1 is formed by projecting the tab portion, and the inner enclosing plate 2 is formed.
In one of the components, a top plate 30 is linked to the upper edge, and a tab portion serving as an outer enclosing plate 31 is formed on each side of the top plate 30 except for the linked side 5 so as to protrude.

On the inner enclosing plate 21 having the linking side 5 at the upper edge and on the other two inner enclosing plates 21 on which one is placed, connecting pieces 22 which are superimposed and fixed next to each other are formed on both sides. I have. Therefore, the inner enclosing plates 21 raised from each side of the bottom plate 20 are connected to each other by the connecting pieces 22 to form the body 2.

On the side of the top plate 30, connecting pieces 32 which are superimposed and fixed next to each other are formed on both sides of the other two outer enclosing plates 31 placed one from the linking side 5. is there. Therefore, the outer enclosing plates 31 folded down from the respective sides of the top plate 30 are connected to each other by the connecting pieces 32 and formed into the lid 3.

The two inner enclosing plates 21 adjacent to the linking side 5 with the top plate 30 are formed on the upper edge thereof by protruding a folded piece 23 which is folded into the inside of the body 2.

The two outer enclosing plates 31 adjacent to the link side 5 of the top plate 30 are formed so that the shape thereof is such that a corner is not provided on the link side 5 side and the other corner from the folding point on the link side 5 side. It is formed in a substantially circular arc or a substantially triangular shape which is substantially linear. Note that these outer enclosing plates 31 will be referred to as cornerless outer enclosing plates 33.

As described above, since the folded pieces 23 are formed on the upper edges of the two inner enclosing plates 21 adjacent to the linking side 5, when the lid 3 is closed, the folded pieces 23 become the outer enclosure on the lid 3 side. This serves as a guide for guiding the plate 31 to the outside of the body 2, thereby preventing the outer surrounding plate 31 from entering the inside (storage portion) of the body 2. Further, when a hexagonal molded tray (not shown) is provided inside the body 2, the folded back piece 23 can prevent the tray from jumping out and rattling.

Further, on the lid 3 side, the two cornerless outer enclosing plates 33 adjacent to the linking side 5 are formed in a substantially triangular shape having no corners on the linking side 5 side, so that they are not caught when the lid 3 is closed. Can be prevented from being broken.

In other words, since the two corner-less outer enclosing plates 33 have no corners on the side near the folding point of the linking side 5, the amount of the corresponding inner enclosing plate 21 that covers the inner enclosing plate 21 depends on the closing operation of the lid 3. It gradually increases, and can be overlaid in a normal order without difficulty, so that operability is good. The two corner-free outer surrounding plates 33 face the above-mentioned folded pieces 23 and complement each other with the guiding action of the folded pieces 23, thereby preventing a problem in which the surrounding plates 21 and 31 are incorrectly fitted. Can be performed with high certainty.

Therefore, in the lid-integrated hexagonal carton 1 according to the present invention, when the lid 3 is closed, it is possible to prevent improper alignment of the shrouds 21 and 31, and it is possible to reliably open and close the lid and improve operability. Good.

[0026]

As described above, according to the present invention, since the folded back piece is provided at the upper edge of the inner enclosing plate adjacent to the linking side with the top plate so as to be folded into the inside of the body, These folded pieces serve as guides for guiding the outer enclosing plate on the lid side to the outside of the body, thereby preventing the outer enclosing plate from entering the inside of the body (storage portion). That is, when closing the lid,
It is possible to prevent improper alignment of the shroud, and it is possible to reliably open and close the cover, thereby improving operability. Furthermore, since the folded piece is folded inside the body, it is possible to prevent the tray from jumping out and rattling in the case of stored items in the body, especially in the case of stored items in a tray. Can be prevented.

Further, the shape of the outer enclosing plate adjacent to the linking side of the top plate is substantially circularly or substantially straight from the folding point on the linking side to the other corner without providing a corner on the linking side. Since the lid has a substantially triangular shape, it can be prevented from being caught when closing the lid, and can be prevented from being folded.

That is, since the deformed outer enclosing plate is located on both sides of the link side and has no corner on the side near the folding point of the link side, the amount of covering on the corresponding inner enclosing plate side is limited by the lid. The closing operation is sequentially increased, and it is possible to cover them in the normal order without difficulty, and the operability is good. The two deformed outer enclosing plates are opposed to the folded pieces of the above-described claim 1 and complement each other with the guiding action of the folded pieces, so that a high degree of certainty can prevent the trouble that the enclosing plates are incorrectly fitted. Can be done with
