Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a portable foldable container which can be rapidly taken out of a large number of stacked and stored containers one by one, easily developed, and easily take out stored contents. <P>SOLUTION: The portable foldable container is formed by folding a predetermined width portion 2 along one side 1a of a square sheet 1 and overlapping a sheet surface 1f, aligning one side 1c intersecting an overlapping side 1b to an overlapping side from corner portions 5 of both sides, folding the entire sheet into two, and affixing the predetermined width portion to a portion 6 overlapping the portion by two-folding. Two face and back sides 1d and 1e overlapping each other on the open side of the container are deviated from each other by the predetermined width, and the deviation between the two sides ensures a space of the sheet thickness between overlapping containers when a large number of completed containers are stacked. This space forms a divide of the containers when taking out one container. The containers can be easily and successively taken out, and foldable containers suitable for the applications requesting rapid take-out and development can be obtained. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、手持ち容器に関し、特に、収容物を投入する際に展開させて使用する、特に食品等の店頭販売に適する折畳み手持ち容器に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
運搬時や保存時の便宜性から、非使用時は折畳んで偏平な形状となり、使用時に展開させて内容物を投入可能とする折畳み容器には、従来より種々のものがある。こうした容器は、一般に、収容する内容物が特定の形状の単品である場合、パイの容器に代表されるように、展開時にその形状と概ね一致するような形状とされ、内容物が細かく多数である場合、フライドポテトの容器に代表されるように、それらの逐次の取り出しが容易で、自立性のある形状とされる。
【0003】
他方、特に折畳を考慮しない包装容器形状として、アイスクリームの包装に用いられる円錐形のものがあり、この形状のものでは、巻いたシートの開口部が円形となるように、扇形のシートを素材とするのが通例である。こうした中で、食品用ではないが、素材を正方形のシートとする円錐形の包装容器が、実開平1−170165号公報に開示の考案において提案されている。この提案に係る包装容器は、正方形のシートの一辺に沿って両面接着テープを貼付け、この辺と交わる他辺を前記一辺に沿って貼り合わせることで円錐形を得ている。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところで、店頭販売においては、商品を入れた容器は、内容物を投入後に、販売員から購買者に直接手渡しされ、購買者も手持ち状態のまま内容物を取り出すのが通例であり、こうした販売に使用する容器にとって、自立性は必ずしも重要ではない。こうした販売方法では、販売者側にとっては、折畳み状態の容器を多数ストックされた中から1つずつ取り出す際の迅速性と、展開の容易さがむしろ重要であり、購買者にとっては、内容物の取り出しの容易さが重要である。こうした面から従来の折畳み容器をみると、それらは展開時の形状の工夫に重きが置かれ、販売時の利便性の考慮に欠ける面がある。この点は、仮に上記提案に係る包装容器を折畳保存し、展開使用するようにした場合を想定しても同様である。
【0005】
本発明は、こうした事情に鑑み案出されたものであり、多数積み重ねて保存した中から、1つずつの迅速な取り出しと展開を容易とし、且つ収容した内容物の取り出しも容易とした手持ち折畳み容器を提供することを目的とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記目的を達成するため、本発明の折畳み手持ち容器は、方形のシートを素材とし、その一辺に沿う所定幅部分を折畳んでシート面に重合させ、それにより形成される重合辺に交わる辺を、それら両辺の角部から重合辺に合せてシート全体を折畳み、前記所定幅部分とシート全体の折畳みにより該部分に重合する部分を貼着してなることを特徴とする。
【0007】
上記の構成において、好ましくは、前記シートは、折畳み前の形状が正方形とされる。この場合、前記角部は、シート全体の折畳みにより形成される実質上直角三角形の3辺を所定幅部分を重合させるシート面側からみたときの、斜辺の左端とされるのが有効である。また、前記シートは、前記所定幅部分を前記角部から斜めに切除されているものであることが望ましい。
【0008】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の実施形態を説明する。図1は、本発明の折畳み手持ち容器に使用するシート素材を示す。この形態では、シート1は正方形とされ、シート1の一辺1aに沿う所定幅部分2を折畳んでシート面1fに重合させるべく、一辺1aに平行に型押し折線3(図には破線で示すが、実際には連続線)が形成されている。そして、型押し折線3の一端から辺1aにかけて、45°の角度で斜めに、シート1の角部4が切除されている。更に、重合により形成される重合辺(型押し線3の山側)1bに交わる辺1cを、それら両辺1b,1cの角部4から重合辺1bに合せてシート1全体を2つ折りに折畳むべく、角部4から両辺1b,1cに対して45°の角度で型押し折線5(同様に、実際には連続線)が形成されている。
【0009】
こうした構成からなるシート1を、先ず型押し折線3に沿って該線3を谷側として折畳み、次に型押し折線5に沿って同じく該線5を谷側として折畳むことで、図2に完成状態を示すように、シート1は一方の辺(重合辺1bと辺1cが重なる辺)と斜辺(型押し線5の山側)1gが袋状に閉じ、残りの辺(ずれた2辺1d,1eにより構成される)が開いた概ね直角三角形形状となる。特に、本形態のように、シート1を正方形とする場合、角部4は、シート1全体の折畳みにより形成される実質上直角三角形の3辺1b(1a),1e,1gを所定幅部分2を重合させるシート面1f側からみたときの、斜辺1gの左端とされる。この折畳みの際、前記切除部分によりシート1の4重重ねが生じることによる不体裁や、積み重ね保存時の厚みの不均衡の蓄積による倒れを防ぐことができる。この状態で、所定幅部分2とシート1全体の折畳みにより所定幅部分2に重合する部分6(図1にハッチングを付して示す)をのり代部として貼着して、折畳み手持ち容器が完成する。
【0010】
こうした折畳み手持ち容器は、その開放辺側で重なる表裏2つの辺1d,1eが所定幅分だけずれた位置関係となる。この構成が本発明の最も特徴的な構成である。この表裏2つの辺1d,1eのずれにより、完成品の容器を多数積み重ねた状態で、重なり合う容器間にシート1の厚さ分の隙間が保たれる。この隙間が容器を1個宛取り出す際の容器の分け目となり、順次の取り出しが容易となる。
【0011】
この容器は、2つの型押し折線3,5部分を偏平に戻すことで、図3に展開状態を示すように、全体として円錐形で、その開口縁1d,1eが貼着部分6で段違い部7となり、反対側で山状の凸部8がある形状となる。この形状は、手持ち状態で段違い部7側を手前とし、山状の凸部8側を奥側(身体から遠い側)に向けることで、内容物を投入及び取出しやすく、しかも右側の開口縁1d側が低くなることで、特に右利きの利用者にとって好都合なものとなり,更に容器を奥側にある程度傾けても、内容物がこぼれ難い使用勝手を得ることができる。
【0012】
この容器に使用するシート材は、紙、紙の表面又は裏面若しくは表裏両面に合成樹脂等の適宜のコーティングを施した積層材、同様の合成樹脂又はその積層物等、任意のものとすることができる。こうした合成樹脂コーティングを施した積層材等の場合、貼着部分は熱接着とすることができる。
【0013】
容器に収容する内容物は、固形物であれば特に制約はないが、先述のような効果を発揮させる上から、店頭販売されるような固形の食品、例えば、甘栗、焼栗、ポップコーン等が適している。
【0014】
【発明の効果】
本発明の請求項1に記載の構成では、容器の開放辺側で重なる表裏2つの辺が所定幅分だけずれた位置関係となるため、この表裏2つの辺のずれにより、完成品の容器を多数積み重ねた状態で、重なり合う容器間にシートの厚さ分の隙間が保たれる。この隙間が容器を1個宛取り出す際の容器の分け目となり、順次の取り出しが容易となる。したがって、店頭販売等、特に容器の取出しや展開、更には商品の投入に迅速性を要求される用途に適した折畳み容器を得ることができる。
【0015】
次に、請求項2に記載の構成では、容器展開時の円錐の頂角が、手持ちの握り感覚に合致した程好い角度となり、しかも開口部の段差が少ない容器形状を実現できる。
【0016】
更に、請求項3に記載の構成では、容器展開時の開口縁の高さが低い貼着部を手前側に向けて持ったときに、貼着部に対する右側の開口縁が左側の開口縁より低くなるため、右利きの利用者を想定したときに、商品としての内容物の投入、取出しともに容易な形状となる。
【0017】
また、請求項4に記載の構成では、容器を構成するシートの貼着部に4重重ねが生じることによる不体裁や、折畳み状態で多数積み重ね保存する際の容器厚みの不均衡の蓄積による倒れを防ぐことができる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a hand-held container, and more particularly, to a folded hand-held container that is developed and used at the time of loading contents, and is particularly suitable for over-the-counter sales of foods and the like.
[0002]
[Prior art]
For convenience in transportation and storage, there are various types of folding containers that can be folded and flattened when not in use and can be unfolded and filled with contents during use. In general, when the content to be contained is a single item of a specific shape, such a container is shaped so as to substantially match the shape at the time of development, as represented by a pie container, and the content is fine and large. In some cases, such as french fries containers, they are easily taken out one after the other and have a self-supporting shape.
[0003]
On the other hand, as a packaging container shape that does not particularly consider folding, there is a conical shape used for packaging ice cream, and in this shape, a fan-shaped sheet is formed so that the opening of the rolled sheet is circular. It is customary to use a material. Under these circumstances, a conical packaging container not made for food but made of a square sheet of material is proposed in the device disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Publication No. 1-170165. In the packaging container according to this proposal, a double-sided adhesive tape is stuck along one side of a square sheet, and the other side intersecting this side is stuck along the one side to obtain a conical shape.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
By the way, in over-the-counter sales, after putting in the contents, the container containing the goods is handed directly to the purchaser by the salesperson, and the purchaser also usually takes out the contents while holding it. Independence is not always important for the container used. In such a selling method, it is rather important for the seller to quickly and easily deploy the folded containers one by one from a large number of stocks. Ease of removal is important. In view of these aspects, when looking at conventional folding containers, their importance is placed on the shape of the containers when they are unfolded, and there is a lack of convenience at the time of sale. This point is the same even if it is assumed that the packaging container according to the above proposal is folded and stored and deployed and used.
[0005]
The present invention has been devised in view of these circumstances, and has a hand-held fold that facilitates quick removal and deployment of individual ones from among a large number of stacked and stored ones, and also facilitates removal of stored contents. It is intended to provide a container.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above object, the folding handheld container of the present invention uses a square sheet as a material, folds a predetermined width portion along one side thereof and superimposes it on the sheet surface, and forms a side intersecting the overlapped side formed thereby. The entire sheet is folded from the corners of both sides thereof to the overlapped side, and the predetermined width portion and a portion which is overlapped with the portion by folding the entire sheet are adhered.
[0007]
In the above configuration, preferably, the sheet has a square shape before folding. In this case, it is effective that the corner is the left end of the hypotenuse when three sides of a substantially right triangle formed by folding the entire sheet are viewed from the sheet surface side where a predetermined width portion is overlapped. Further, it is preferable that the sheet has the predetermined width portion cut obliquely from the corner.
[0008]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described. FIG. 1 shows a sheet material used for the folding hand-held container of the present invention. In this embodiment, the sheet 1 is formed in a square shape. In order to fold a predetermined width portion 2 along one side 1a of the sheet 1 so as to overlap the sheet surface 1f, an embossed folding line 3 (shown by a broken line in FIG. However, a continuous line is actually formed. The corners 4 of the sheet 1 are cut off at an angle of 45 ° from one end of the embossed folding line 3 to the side 1a. Further, in order to fold the entire sheet 1 in two, the side 1c intersecting with the overlapped side (crest side of the embossing line 3) 1b formed by the overlap is adjusted from the corner 4 of both sides 1b, 1c to the overlapped side 1b. The embossed folding line 5 (similarly, a continuous line) is formed at an angle of 45 ° from the corner 4 with respect to both sides 1b and 1c.
[0009]
The sheet 1 having such a configuration is first folded along the embossed folding line 3 with the line 3 as the valley side, and then folded along the embossed folding line 5 with the same line 5 as the valley side, as shown in FIG. As shown in the completed state, the sheet 1 has one side (the side where the overlapped side 1b and the side 1c overlap) and the oblique side (the mountain side of the embossing line 5) 1g closed in a bag shape, and the other side (the shifted two sides 1d). , 1e) in the shape of an open right triangle. In particular, when the sheet 1 has a square shape as in the present embodiment, the corners 4 are formed by dividing the three sides 1b (1a), 1e, 1g of a substantially right triangle formed by folding the entire sheet 1 into a predetermined width portion 2 Is the left end of the hypotenuse 1g when viewed from the side of the sheet surface 1f to be superposed. At the time of this folding, it is possible to prevent the sheet 1 from being distorted due to the quadruple overlapping of the cut portions, and from falling due to accumulation of thickness imbalance during stacking and storage. In this state, the predetermined width portion 2 and a portion 6 (shown by hatching in FIG. 1) that overlaps with the predetermined width portion 2 by folding the entire sheet 1 are adhered as a glue margin, and a folding handheld container is completed. I do.
[0010]
In such a folding hand-held container, the two sides 1d and 1e overlapping on the open side are shifted from each other by a predetermined width. This configuration is the most characteristic configuration of the present invention. Due to the displacement between the front and back sides 1d and 1e, a gap corresponding to the thickness of the sheet 1 is maintained between the overlapping containers in a state in which a large number of completed containers are stacked. This gap serves as a dividing line between containers when one container is taken out, and it is easy to sequentially take out the containers.
[0011]
The container has a conical shape as a whole by returning the two embossed folding lines 3 and 5 to a flat state as shown in FIG. 7 and a shape having a mountain-shaped convex portion 8 on the opposite side. This shape is easy to insert and take out the contents by turning the stepped portion 7 side toward the front and the mountain-shaped convex portion 8 side toward the back side (far side from the body) in the hand-held state, and furthermore, the opening edge 1d on the right side The lower side makes it particularly convenient for right-handed users, and even if the container is tilted to the rear side to some extent, it is possible to obtain the convenience that the contents are hard to spill.
[0012]
The sheet material used in this container may be any material such as paper, a laminated material in which an appropriate coating such as a synthetic resin is applied to the front surface, the back surface, or both sides of the paper, a similar synthetic resin or a laminate thereof. it can. In the case of a laminated material or the like provided with such a synthetic resin coating, the adhered portion can be thermally bonded.
[0013]
The contents to be contained in the container are not particularly limited as long as they are solids, but from the viewpoint of exhibiting the above-mentioned effects, solid foods such as sweet chestnuts, roasted chestnuts, popcorn, and the like, which are sold over the counter, are used. Are suitable.
[0014]
【The invention's effect】
In the configuration according to the first aspect of the present invention, the two sides overlapping on the open side of the container have a positional relationship shifted by a predetermined width. With a large number of sheets stacked, a gap corresponding to the thickness of the sheet is kept between the overlapping containers. This gap serves as a dividing line between containers when one container is taken out, and it is easy to sequentially take out the containers. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a folded container suitable for use at stores, for example, in which the container is required to be promptly taken out and unfolded, and further, to be promptly put into the product.
[0015]
Next, according to the configuration of the second aspect, the apex angle of the cone when the container is unfolded becomes a preferable angle so as to match the grip feeling of the hand, and a container shape with a small step at the opening can be realized.
[0016]
Furthermore, in the configuration according to claim 3, when the sticking portion having a low opening edge when the container is deployed is held toward the front side, the right opening edge with respect to the sticking portion is larger than the left opening edge. As a result, when a right-handed user is assumed, the shape of the product as a product can be easily inputted and taken out.
[0017]
Further, in the configuration according to the fourth aspect, the sheet is stuck in the form of a quadruple in the sticking portion of the sheet constituting the container, or the container collapses due to accumulation of an imbalance in the thickness of the container when a large number of sheets are stored in a folded state. Can be prevented.
