Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a packing device for transporting articles, particularly a notebook computer, which is suitable for transporting as a courier service.
[0002]
[Prior art]
With the spread of notebook computers, the necessity of transporting notebook computers has increased dramatically. In recent years, there have been cases where requests from users for repairing notebook computers, increasing memory, and the like are accepted only by mail or courier, rather than being brought directly to the repair center of the manufacturer.
[0003]
In such a case, after the notebook computer sent from the user to the manufacturer is repaired, maintained, and repaired, the notebook computer is also returned to the user from the manufacturer by mail or courier. When transporting a notebook computer by mail or courier, measures must be taken in its packaging to ensure that the notebook computer is sufficiently protected from impact.
[0004]
When transporting a notebook computer from the manufacturer to the user, it is possible to take sufficient protective measures for the packaging or to standardize the packaging to a certain quality, but it is possible It is not always easy for a person to take sufficient protective measures for a package unless a packing material is prepared and a dedicated notebook computer carrying packaging is provided.
[0005]
In order to respond to such a demand, a packing device for transporting articles, particularly a notebook computer, has been developed which can be stably held and effectively protected from an externally applied impact (see Patent Document 1).
[0006]
[Patent Document 1] JP-A-2001-130640
[0007]
The article transport packaging described in Patent Literature 1 is an article transport packaging having a combination of an individual body 21 and an interior body 22 as shown in FIG. 7 (f). One board is folded, the folded edge covers the surface of the article M to be conveyed, and this is kept in a fixed shape. The interior body 22 holds the individual body 21 and holds the inside of the outer box 23. It is housed in. 6, the interior body 22 has a base board 26 and a holding sheet 27. The base board 26 supports the individual package 21 holding the article M in place, and has a rising portion 32 and a falling portion 31, and the rising portion 32 faces upward from both side edges of the base board 26. The falling portion 31 is folded downward from both side edges of the base board 26, the upper end of the rising portion 32 is supported by the upper bottom surface of the outer box 23, and the lower end of the falling portion 31 is supported by the lower bottom surface. The board 26 is held at a distance from the upper and lower surfaces of the outer box 23, and the holding sheet 27 has both ends fixed to the side edges of the base board 26, and covers the surface of the individual package 21 on the base board 26. The individual body 21 is pressed against the base board 26 to be fixed by bending the falling portion 31 by bending.
[0008]
According to the article transporting packing device, the notebook computer or other article M is wrapped in the individual body 21, and the individual body 21 is pressed onto the base board 26 with the holding sheet 27 and fixed to the interior body 22. Since the inner body 22 is supported by the rising portion 32 and the falling portion 31 and housed in the outer box 23, it has an effect of effectively protecting against impact that may be applied during transportation.
[0009]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, when the transport packaging described in Patent Document 1 was used, it was found that there were some problems in actual handling. For example, when packing the articles, as shown in FIG. 6 (b), with the base board 26 spread out on a plane as shown in FIG. 6 (a), first, the both falling parts 31, 31 are first slightly upwardly directed as shown in FIG. 6 (b). Then, the space between the base board 26 and the holding sheet 27 is opened, and the individual package 21 storing the article M is inserted between the base board 26 and the holding sheet 27 as shown in FIG. Place this in the center of the baseboard.
[0010]
Next, in FIG. 7D, the both falling portions 31, 31 are folded downward from the side edge of the base board 26, and further folded at an angle of 90 ° or more to be folded on the lower surface of the base board 26.
[0011]
As a result, the holding sheet 27 is pulled by the falling portion 31 and is tensed, and the individual body 21 is pressed against the base board 26, and the protruding portion of the individual body 21 is pressed and bent downward. The side edge of the article M is pressed by the bent portion to prevent lateral displacement of the notebook computer, and this is held at a fixed position.
[0012]
The rising portion 32 is folded upward from both sides of the base board 26 as shown in FIG. 7 (e), and pressing portions 36 attached to both ends of the falling portion 31 are applied to the outer surfaces of both ends thereof, as shown in FIG. 7 (f). Then, it is put into the outer box 23 as it is, and the outer box 23 is covered to complete the packing.
[0013]
Incidentally, the prevention of the lateral displacement of the packed article M is mainly due to the tension of the holding sheet 27 due to the bending of the both falling portions 31, but when a force exceeding the deterrent force due to the tension of the holding sheet 27 is applied to the article M. Alternatively, when an impact from the article M is applied to the tensioned portion of the holding sheet 27 which is vibrated and pulled by the falling portion 31 and is tensed, the holding sheet 27 is extended to extend the inside of the outer box 23. It is unavoidable that the individual body 21 shifts sideways. In the invention described in Patent Literature 1, the reason why the shape of the article M is maintained using the individual package 21 is to prevent the article M from being laterally shifted as much as possible.
[0014]
Another problem with the packaging for transporting goods described in Patent Literature 1 is the problem of workability. After inserting the individual body 21 between the baseboard 26 and the holding sheet 27 of the article M, the user holds the both falling portions 31 with both hands and folds the downward portions, places them once on the tabletop, and then places them on the desktop. It is necessary to raise the two rising portions 32 with both hands and push the rising portions 32 into the outer box 3 from above. As a result, the worker has to perform five actions, such as changing his / her hand from a falling part to a rising part, in order to store the interior body in the outer box. Furthermore, it has been pointed out that merely looking at the combination of the expanded base board 26 and the holding sheet 27 as shown in FIG. 6A does not make it clear how to handle it.
[0015]
An object of the present invention is not only to stably hold and effectively protect against externally acting impacts when transporting articles, especially notebook computers, but also to stably hold without using an individual package, and to handle Is to provide an easy-to-carry packaging for goods.

[0035]
The pressing sheet 2 only needs to have strength enough to withstand the tension caused by the bending of the falling portion 6, and it is necessary that the pressing sheet 2 has elasticity, but it is not necessarily excellent in elasticity like a urethane sheet. There is no need to use sheets. Rather, because of the elasticity, the packed article M may shake on the mounting surface against the elasticity of the sheet when affected by vibration during transportation or the like.
[0036]
2, the direction of the flute of the cardboard paper is set to the longitudinal direction of the base board 1 (the direction connecting both the falling portions 5 and 5). Therefore, the bending strength in the direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction is large, and the vertical surface forming portion 7 and the horizontal surface forming portion 8 of the both falling portions 6 can be bent without difficulty while withstanding the tension of the holding sheet 2, and the falling portion 6 Due to the bending of the vertical surface forming portion 7 and the horizontal surface forming portion 8, the falling portion acts as a rib, and its strength is increased together with a buffering action. According to the structure of the present invention, it has been found that the packing device can be assembled using cardboard paper having a smaller strength than the structure described in Patent Document 1.
[0037]
Although the present invention has been developed as a packing device for transporting a notebook computer, it is needless to say that the present invention can be applied to a packing device for transporting electronic devices of the same form and other articles. In addition, the present invention has developed a structure that can directly pack articles without using an individual package as described in Patent Document 1, but of course, when packing small articles or irregular-shaped articles, Of course, it is also possible to keep the shape of the individual package and pack it.
[0038]
