Description

  The present invention relates to a blister container, a toothbrush product, and a display structure of a blister container, and more particularly to a blister container, a toothbrush product, and a display structure of a plurality of blister containers that lack positional stability as a single container.

  For example, a conventional blister container that accommodates small articles such as toothbrushes and lipsticks is blister-molded using a transparent plastic sheet or the like, and has a three-dimensional product accommodating portion along the product, and a flat plate For example, the product is enclosed and accommodated by adhering the peripheral edge of the blister to the surface of the mount (for example, see Patent Document 1).

  In addition, a blister container containing a toothbrush or the like lacks positional stability as a single unit, and therefore, for example, a plurality of blister containers may be displayed at a store in a state where they are loaded in an inner box. For those with a large quantity in the inner box, the number of blister containers accommodated in the inner box is reduced by providing a partition plate in the inner box or by providing a separate base for position control. This prevents the blister container from falling in an irregular direction (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

Further, by placing a perforation on the mount, it is possible to easily take out a stored product such as a toothbrush even if the blister and the mount are firmly bonded (see, for example, Patent Document 3).

  However, providing an intermediate partition plate in the inner box or providing a separate part base increases the material cost of the inner box and increases the cost. Moreover, since the process of inserting a blister container into a base increases, workability | operativity worsens and production capacity falls.

  Furthermore, since the opening provided in the mount for taking out the product such as the toothbrush from the blister container is generally provided on the back side of the product housing portion in which the product such as the toothbrush is accommodated, the product becomes an obstacle to the opening. Since it becomes difficult to pick up the product with a finger, it takes time and effort to take out the product by breaking the mount along the perforation, for example.

  The present invention relates to a blister container, a toothbrush product, and a blister container that enable a plurality of blister containers to be displayed and handled as a single unit while restricting the position without using a partition plate or a separate part for restricting the position. The purpose is to provide a display structure.

  Moreover, an object of this invention is to provide the blister container and toothbrush product which improved the openability and made it easy to take out a product.

  The blister container of the present invention comprises a mount and a blister that is molded into a shape that accommodates the product and is integrated with the mount to solve the above-described problem. It has a positioning protrusion that protrudes high, and the mount is provided with a protrusion insertion part formed at a position overlapping the base end portion of the positioning protrusion.

  Thereby, when arranging a plurality of blister containers in the front-rear direction, by inserting the leading end portion of the positioning protrusion of the blister container arranged rearward into the protrusion insertion part of the mount of the front blister container so as to be fitted from the back side It is possible to arrange a plurality of blister containers regularly in the front-rear direction while regulating so that they do not shift to the left and right, and even if there are many blister containers, they can be arranged regularly in the same way Become.

  Further, in the blister container of the present invention, the cross-sectional shape of the positioning protrusion is larger than the shape of the protrusion insertion portion at the base end portion overlapping the protrusion insertion portion, and the shape of the protrusion insertion portion at the distal end portion. Is preferably smaller.

  Accordingly, it is possible to smoothly fit the positioning protrusions of the blister container to be arranged behind the protrusion insertion part of the front blister container, and to mount the mount using the protrusion insertion part as the opening. When it is peeled off, it becomes easy to pick up the mount on the peripheral portion of the protrusion insertion portion. Note that the shape of the protrusion insertion portion, the cross-sectional shape of the proximal end portion of the positioning protrusion, and the cross-sectional shape of the distal end portion of the positioning protrusion are preferably similar or substantially similar. It is not limited to the shape. For example, it may be a circle, an ellipse, a rectangle, a polygon, or the like. In addition, the cross-sectional shape of the base end portion of the positioning protrusion is larger than the shape of the protrusion insertion portion. When these are superimposed, the base end portion of the positioning protrusion protrudes inside the protrusion insertion portion. This means that the cross-sectional shape of the tip of the positioning protrusion is smaller than the shape of the protrusion insertion part.When these are superimposed, the tip of the positioning protrusion is outside the protrusion insertion part. It means not to protrude.

  Furthermore, in the blister container of the present invention, it is preferable that a perforation extending from the protrusion insertion portion is provided on the mount.

  As a result, the operation of peeling the mount from the blister can be performed via the protrusion insertion portion of the mount, and it is not necessary to provide an opening in another part of the blister container, and the opening operation is facilitated. In addition, the protrusion insertion part should just have sufficient magnitude | size to hook a fingertip or a nail | claw on the peripheral part of the said protrusion insertion part. Moreover, the protrusion insertion part should just be provided with the form which can insert the front-end | tip part of a positioning protrusion, for example, a slit part, a recessed part, etc. other than a hole may be sufficient.

  In addition, the toothbrush product of the present invention is characterized in that the toothbrush is accommodated in the blister container having the above-described configuration.

  Furthermore, the display structure of the blister container of the present invention is a display structure for displaying a plurality of blister containers comprising a mount and blisters molded into a shape that accommodates a product and integrated with the mount. The blister container is characterized in that the distal end portion of the positioning protrusion of the blister container is inserted and locked to the protrusion insertion part of the front blister container from the back side so that the relative positions of the plurality of blister containers do not shift.

  According to the display structure of the blister container, toothbrush product, or blister container of the present invention, a plurality of blister containers can be displayed as a single unit while regulating the position without using a partition plate or another part for regulating the position. Can be handled. Further, according to the blister container or toothbrush product of the present invention, if the perforation extending from the protruding portion insertion portion is provided on the mount of the blister container, the opening property can be improved and the product can be easily taken out. .

  Hereinafter, a blister container according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. As shown in FIGS. 1A to 1C, the blister container 1 of the present embodiment accommodates, for example, a toothbrush 2 as a product, and is a flat plate-like mount 4 made of paper or resin. The blister 3 is formed from a transparent plastic sheet through vacuum forming, pressure forming, or the like, and has a three-dimensional convex shaped product receiving portion 3A along the three-dimensional shape of the toothbrush 2. The blister 3 becomes a blister container 1 and forms a toothbrush product by being bonded to a vertically long strip-like mount 4 via an adhesive means such as heat seal in a state where the toothbrush 2 is stored in the product storage portion 3A. In addition, the blister container 1 alone lacks positional stability, and a hanging hook portion 5 is generally formed at the end of the toothbrush head side so that it can be hung on a hook or the like by over-the-counter sales. ing.

  And the blister container 1 of this embodiment is a blister container provided with the position control function which improves the positional stability at the time of displaying and handling collectively, Comprising: The blister 3 is more than the product storage part 3A from the mount 4 A positioning protrusion 6 projecting high is provided, and the mount 4 is provided with a protrusion insertion part 7 formed at a position overlapping the base end portion 6 </ b> A of the positioning protrusion 6.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the cross-sectional shape of the positioning protrusion 6 is larger than the shape of the protrusion insertion portion 7 at the base end portion 6A overlapping the protrusion insertion portion 7, The portion 6B is smaller than the shape of the protrusion insertion portion 7, and the mount 4 is provided with a perforation 8 extending from the protrusion insertion portion 7.

  According to the present embodiment, the positioning protrusions 6 provided on the blister 3 are formed at positions spaced above the product storage portion 3A, and the base end portion 6A on the side in close contact with the mount 4 is the bottom. By having a prefix conical shape whose bottom surface is an open surface, the side surface is a tapered surface that tapers toward the tip. The positioning projection 6 is inserted and locked to the projection insertion portion 7 of the front blister container 1 at the tip portion 6B whose height 10 is higher than that of the product housing portion 3A. It has become.

  Further, the positioning protrusion 6 has a circular cross-sectional diameter (area) 12 in the base end portion 6A larger than a diameter (area) 13 of the circular protrusion insertion part 7 having a similar shape. The diameter (area) 11 of the circular cross-sectional shape at the distal end portion 6B is smaller than the diameter (area) 13 of the circular protrusion insertion portion 7 having a similar shape, and the central axis of the positioning protrusion 6 Is substantially aligned with the center of the protrusion insertion portion 7. As a result, the blister container 1 is viewed from the front side, and the positional relationship is such that the proximal end portion 6A of the positioning projection 6 does not protrude inside the projection insertion portion 7 and the projection insertion portion 7 The positional relationship is such that the distal end portion 6B of the positioning protrusion 6 does not protrude outward. In the present embodiment, the positioning protrusion 6 is formed in a tapered shape that tapers. However, the area of the base end portion 6A that is in close contact with the mount 4 need only be larger than the area of the tip end portion 6B. It can also be formed in a stepped shape as shown in FIG.

  The protrusion insertion portion 7 provided on the mount 4 is a circular hole, and is formed with an opening in a state where the center thereof substantially coincides with the central axis of the prefix conical positioning protrusion 6. As a result, the front end portion 6B of the positioning protrusion 6 of the rear blister container 1 can be smoothly inserted from the rear side of the front blister container 1 into the protrusion insertion part 7, thereby making the relative to the left and right relative to each other. Therefore, a position regulating function for avoiding a typical positional deviation is exhibited.

  According to this embodiment, since the protrusion insertion part 7 also has a function as an opening for taking out a toothbrush that is a product in addition to the position restriction function, the protrusion insertion part 7 can be used to insert a fingertip or a nail into the protrusion. It is necessary to have a size sufficient to be hooked on the peripheral edge portion of the portion insertion portion 7. Further, the difference between the diameter 13 of the protrusion insertion portion 7 and the diameter 12 of the base end portion 6A of the positioning protrusion 6 can secure a width that allows the mount 4 of the peripheral portion of the protrusion insertion portion 7 to be grasped with a finger. It has become.

  Furthermore, according to the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, since the perforation 8 extending obliquely from the protruding portion insertion portion 7 toward the side edge portions on both sides of the mount 4 is provided, Even if the mount 4 is firmly adhered, the openability of the blister container 1 can be improved and the toothbrush 2 can be easily taken out.

  In addition, according to this embodiment, although the protrusion insertion part 7 was made into the circular hole, since the protrusion insertion part 7 is for inserting the front-end | tip part 6B of the positioning protrusion 6 in the base_sheet | mounting_paper 4, FIG. As shown in FIG. 5, when a slit portion 9 is formed by cutting a plurality of slits in the radial direction from the center in a circular region, and the tip portion 6A of the positioning projection 6 is inserted, the slit portion 9 May be structured so as to enter the hollow inside of the positioning projection 6.

  When a plurality of blister containers 1 of the present embodiment are displayed at, for example, a storefront, a method of selling by hanging the hanging hook portion 5 on a hook hanging rod, and a method of displaying and selling while being put in the inner box 14 (FIG. 6). See). According to the display structure of the present embodiment, for example, when the blister container 1 is displayed in a state of being accommodated in the inner box 14, as shown in FIG. 6, the distal end portion of the positioning projection 6 of the rear blister container 1 is used. 6B can be inserted and locked to the protrusion insertion portion 7 of the front blister container 1 from the back side, so that the relative positions of the plurality of blister containers 1 can be controlled so as not to shift, and the middle box 14 can be displayed. Even if the number of the blister containers 1 decreases, it is possible to provide storefront display properties equivalent to the case where the partition 15 is provided in the inner box 14 as shown in FIG. 7 without disturbing the arrangement thereof. In addition, in this way, the blister container 1 itself is not provided with a position restricting function on the inner box 14 side, but the blister container 1 itself is provided with a position restricting function, thereby reducing the material cost of the entire product and improving the productivity. It becomes possible to make it.

  Therefore, according to this embodiment, since the blister container 1 itself has a position restriction function, the position of the plurality of blister containers 1 is restricted without using a partition plate or another part for restricting the position. It can be displayed and handled as a unit.

  The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be made. For example, the product to be accommodated is not limited to a toothbrush, and can be used as a blister container for accommodating various other products such as pens and lipsticks. Further, the positioning protrusion and the protrusion insertion portion do not necessarily need to be provided at a position away from the product storage portion, and may be provided to overlap the product storage portion only for position regulation. In this case, there is no restriction on the size of the protruding portion, but since the contained product and the protruding portion overlap, it becomes difficult to insert a finger from the protruding portion. It will not be different from the container. Furthermore, in addition to the case where a plurality of blister containers are placed side by side in a standing state, for example, when arranging the blister containers in a vertically stacked state, the position restriction function can be effectively exhibited. This makes it possible to avoid collapsing the vertically stacked blister containers without requiring an inner box.
