  Traditionally, decorative jars have been used for New Years and celebrations, with large and small circular bowls stacked in two tiers, and fruits such as mandarin oranges placed on them. As a fruit substitute for the decoration, for example, a decoration fruit according to Japanese Patent No. 3010286 has been proposed, which has an insertion hole in the top of a hollow fruit body made of a synthetic resin, and has a bowl-shaped insertion restriction part. A handle with a handle is picked by the upper gripping part and inserted into the insertion hole, and the insertion restricting part restricts insertion more than necessary into the insertion hole, so that it appears as if it were an actual decorative fruit-like taste Become.

  Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2004-34535 proposes a decorative fruit for decoration and a method for producing the same. This is a solid decorative fruit body having a recess with an opening at the bottom, and forcing the opening of the recess. The bottomed cylindrical lid member is closed, and the handle is placed on the connecting protrusion formed on the top of the decorative fruit body. The solid shape has a recess with an opening at the bottom. The decorative fruit body is formed by injection molding, while the bottomed cylindrical lid member formed by injection molding so as to be fitted into the recess is forcibly inserted into the recess of the decorative fruit body before heat shrinking, and Suppose that it manufactures by putting a pattern body on the connection protrusion projected and formed in the top part of the decoration fruit main part.

  On the other hand, as Japanese Patent No. 2934873, a decorative casket is proposed in which a decorative stacked fruit is bonded to a plastic casket-shaped container. It is assumed that substantially all of the adhesive is peeled off with the stacked fruit when the container is peeled off by hand, and the material of the container and the adhesive is set so that the surface of the stacked basket becomes a smooth surface.

  Similarly, the decorative casket proposed as Japanese Patent No. 2961141 is packed with cocoons in a plastic casket-shaped container, and the plastic berries representing the mandarin orange are stacked on top of the casket. In addition, a transparent see-through cover made of plastic, a part of which is in contact with the stacked folds, is detachably placed on the stacked fruits and further stored in a box.

Similarly, the decorative casket proposed as Japanese Patent No. 3369522 is a base member imitating three sides by closing the container with the lower opening of the container formed in the shape of a plastic casket containing the casket. It is assumed that the stacked fruit placed on the container is covered with a cover body in a fitted state on the upper part of the container and the entire stacked fruit.

  However, according to Patent Document 1, these conventionally proposed decorative fruits are actually hollow to form the fruit body by blow molding, and are light in weight, so there is no sense of weight and the texture is also visually apparent. Become scarce. Not only that, there is a slight unnatural feeling due to the so-called burrs that occur on the mating surface of the mold, which is peculiar to blow molding, and the burrs can hurt the fingers of those who handle them. It was. Moreover, since the fruit itself is hollow, it may be partially crushed due to external force, impact, etc., and it is lightweight, so it can be easily dropped when decorating it on a serving bowl. Sometimes it happened. In addition, when the handle itself is inserted into the insertion hole of the fruit body, even if insertion more than necessary is blocked by the insertion restricting portion, the handle is strongly pulled when picking and handling the grip portion of the handle after insertion. Occasionally, the fruit body was removed. Further, according to Patent Document 2, since it is basically formed by injection molding, even if the drawbacks in Patent Document 1 can be eliminated, the molding material forming the fruit body, the lid member, etc. is slightly increased, and even slightly It was expensive.

    On the other hand, the decorative stacked cocoon in which the container for storing the cocoon and the stacked fruit according to Patent Documents 3 to 5 are integrated is a hot melt adhesive in which the balance between the integration and the peelability is delicately set in Patent Document 3 using an adhesive. There are difficulties in selecting an agent. Further, in Patent Document 4, for example, when multiple layers are stacked at the time of display, it is possible to prevent breakage due to the weakness of the stacked fruits by blow molding. However, since this is a multi-stage display form using a box, It is unsuitable when selling in a random state without using a bulky box. In Patent Document 5, even if the cover is covered with a transparent cover body, the product looks good like a stacked bowl with a mandarin orange and has excellent merchantability. Therefore, the appearance of the product is rather bad due to the presence of the cover body.
