DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an insulated box made of foamed resin for keeping foods and beverages cold.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for example, when selling foods such as marine products and beverages such as beer, products are sometimes put together with a cooling agent in a styrofoam cooling box so that they can be kept cool and taken back.

[0003] This insulated box comprises a body box provided with a hand strap,
The body box and the lid are fixed to each other by wrapping a tape around the joint.

[0004] In such a styrofoam box, since the product display cannot be printed directly, the product display is printed on the above-mentioned sealing tape so as to notify the consumer of the contents of the product.

[0005]

However, in the above-described product display using tape, since the appeal to consumers is weak, an effective product display means that can be applied to a cold box made of resin such as styrene foam or polyethylene foam is available. It has been demanded.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a foamed resin insulated box comprising a body box and a cover, wherein a recess is provided on the upper surface of the cover, and a product is displayed inside the recess. The upper part of the recess was covered with a transparent plastic sheet.

[0007] In this cool box, consumers can be attracted by the product display in the recess which can be seen through the transparent plastic sheet, and the product can be appealed to consumers.
By making the product display three-dimensional, the appeal can be further improved.

[0008]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

This styrofoam cool box is for storing canned beer and keeping it cool, and comprises a body box 1 and a lid 2 as shown in FIGS. A rope is inserted in the body box 1 as a hand strap 3 in an annular shape.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a concave portion 4 is provided on the upper surface of the lid 2, and a central portion on the back side of the lid 2 is bulged to form the concave portion 4. On the inner bottom surface of the recess 4, as a product display 5, a three-dimensional modeling resembling a beer can is performed, and a label on which the design of the can is printed is stuck.

A transparent plate-shaped plastic sheet 6 is placed above the recess 4, and its peripheral edge is attached to a frame 7 which is one step lower than the upper surface of the lid 2.

A rib 8 is provided on the rear side outer peripheral portion of the lid 2 slightly inside the peripheral edge. When the lid 2 is closed, the rib 8 fits into the opening edge of the body box 1 and the lid 2 is Positioning is performed with respect to the box 1.

On the outer surface of the rib 8, a ridge 9 is provided.
Grooves 10 are respectively formed in the inner surfaces of the openings, and when the lid 2 is closed, the ridges 9 are elastically pressed into and engaged with the grooves 10 to increase the sealing strength of the lid 2.

When such cold storage boxes are arranged in a store, the attention of the consumer is attracted by the three-dimensional product display 5 in the recess 4 which can be seen through the transparent plastic sheet 6, and the product is appealed to the consumer and consumed. Can motivate consumers to purchase.

Further, since the lid 2 is securely sealed by the ribs 8, it is not necessary to seal the lid 2 with a tape.

In this case, the product display 5 is the cover 2
Is formed by directly processing the upper surface, but a three-dimensional shape manufactured separately may be inserted into the recess 4.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the plastic sheet 6 is formed by bending both sides in a U shape as shown in FIG. 2 may be fixed.

In this case, if the interval between the bent portions on both sides of the plastic sheet 6 is widened downward, the plastic sheets 6 can be stacked and stocked when manufacturing the cool box.

In addition, in this example, the ribs 8 are formed on the entire back side of the lid 2. However, the ribs 8 can fulfill the above-mentioned sealing function if they are on at least one pair of opposite sides of the lid 2.

[0020]

As described above, in the cool box according to the present invention, it is possible to attract the consumer's attention by displaying the product in the recess which can be seen through the transparent plastic sheet and to appeal the product to the consumer. The promotion effect can be expected, and the appeal of the product can be further improved by making the product display three-dimensional.
