Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a hand-made paper tray suitable for storing mushrooms and green vegetables.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a package for mushrooms such as dance mushrooms, as shown in FIG. 9, a U-shaped frame 51 made of corrugated cardboard is inserted upward into a paper bag 50 having a wide gore width to form a mass of mushrooms. A that stores A is used. Such packaging is provided by frame 5
Since the shape is kept at 1, it can be stacked at the time of storage or display.

[0003]

However, in such a package, it takes time and effort to insert the frame into the paper bag.
Since a plurality of types of packaging materials are used, there is a problem that packaging costs are increased.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a tray which can be easily assembled with cardboard.

[0005]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a tray according to the present invention is characterized in that a side plate connected to both side edges of a bottom plate is erected, and an end plate connected to both side edges of each side plate is placed inward. Bending, twisting the engaging piece protruding at the tip of the overlapping end plate in the opposite direction, inserting the other end plate into the cut formed at the base end, engaging these end plates with each other, and pasting Thus, it is possible to easily assemble a piece of cardboard manually by hand without performing any operation.

[0006]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In this tray blank, as shown in FIG. 1, side plates 2 are continuously provided on both side edges of an inverted trapezoidal bottom plate 1, and end plates 3 are continuously provided on both side edges of each side plate 2. In addition, end receiving pieces 4 are continuously provided at both end edges of the bottom plate 1,
A fan-shaped engaging piece 5 protrudes from the distal end of each end plate 3, and a cut 7 is provided from a fold 6 at the base to the distal end.

[0007] As shown in FIG. 2, such a blank is obtained by erecting the side plate 2 and the end receiving piece 4 from the bottom plate 1 and the end plate 3.
Is bent inward, and as shown in FIG. 3, the other end plate 3 is inserted into the cut 7 while the engaging pieces 5 of the overlapping end plates 3 are twisted in the opposite direction, and these end plates 3 are engaged with each other. Just assemble it.

[0008] The tray assembled in this manner is
The engagement piece 5 protrudes from the upper edge of the end plate 3 which has a lower constriction shape suitable for storing the mushroom A and becomes horizontal.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. This tray is formed by assembling the blank shown in FIG. 4 into the shape shown in FIG. 5, and in this assembled state, the upper edge of the end plate 3 is lowered toward the center, and the engaging piece 5 is It is designed to fit at the same height as the rim.

[0010] The tray comprises a bottom plate 1 and both side plates 2.
Since the fold line 8 is provided on the end receiving piece 4 and the locking piece 9 is provided, as shown in FIG. By folding in two along and engaging the locking piece 9 with the other end receiving piece 4, the folded state can be maintained, the bulk can be reduced, and the discarded.

Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. This tray is formed from the blank shown in FIG. 7 and is provided with a cut 7 so that the engagement piece 5 extends to the base end side of the end plate 3. Therefore, as shown in FIG. While twisting the engaging pieces 5 in the opposite directions, the notches 7 are inserted into each other and pulled outward, whereby the engaging pieces 5 are locked and the assembled state is maintained.

[0012]

As described above, in the tray according to the present invention, the engaging pieces of the overlapping end plates are twisted in the opposite direction and engaged with the other end plate to maintain the shape. Without assembling, it is easy to assemble by hand from one piece of cardboard, and it is possible to suppress costs associated with shipping of agricultural products such as mushrooms and greens.
