As a storage container for storing a tape cartridge, a storage case for a tape cartridge disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-104568 is known. This storage case is formed by integrally forming a body part and a lid part, and is configured to be able to store one substantially square tape cartridge.
JP 2002-104568 A (page 3, FIG. 4)

ところが、上記の収納ケースには、以下の問題点がある。すなわち、この収納ケースでは、テープカートリッジを1本しか収納できないため、例えば、多数のテープカートリッジをまとめて販売する際には、出荷時にテープカートリッジを収納ケースに1本ずつ収納して包装する必要があるため、無駄なコストが発生しているという問題点が存在する。また、複数のテープカートリッジを持ち運ぶ際には、各テープカートリッジをこの収納ケースにそれぞれ収納して、それらをさらに大形の収納箱等に収納する必要があり煩雑であるという問題点も存在する。このような問題点を解決するために、近年では、上記のような販売形態や使用形態において、複数のテープカートリッジを収納可能な収納容器が用いられている。この場合、この収納容器は、例えば、トレー状に形成されており、一対の収納容器における各々の開口部側を突合させて嵌合部を互いに嵌合させることで、複数のテープカートリッジを収納可能な箱状体を両収納容器で形成可能に構成されている。しかしながら、従来のこの種の収納容器では、嵌合部の形状が非対称であったり、嵌合部の配設位置が非対称であったりするため、予め決められた方向で両収納容器を突合させない限り、両収納容器の嵌合部を互いに嵌合させることができないのが一般的である。このため、両収納容器を突合させる際には、収納容器における左右や上下の向きを確認する必要があるため、収納作業の効率を向上させるのが困難であるという問題点が存在する。   However, the above storage case has the following problems. That is, in this storage case, only one tape cartridge can be stored. For example, when a large number of tape cartridges are sold together, it is necessary to store and package the tape cartridges one by one in the storage case at the time of shipment. Therefore, there is a problem that useless cost is generated. Further, when carrying a plurality of tape cartridges, it is necessary to store each tape cartridge in the storage case and store them in a large storage box or the like, which is complicated. In order to solve such problems, in recent years, storage containers that can store a plurality of tape cartridges have been used in the above-described sales and usage modes. In this case, the storage container is formed in a tray shape, for example, and can accommodate a plurality of tape cartridges by engaging each opening side of the pair of storage containers and fitting the fitting parts to each other. A simple box-shaped body can be formed with both storage containers. However, in this type of conventional storage container, since the shape of the fitting part is asymmetrical or the arrangement position of the fitting part is asymmetrical, unless both storage containers are abutted in a predetermined direction. In general, the fitting portions of the two storage containers cannot be fitted to each other. For this reason, when both storage containers are brought into contact with each other, there is a problem that it is difficult to improve the efficiency of the storage work because it is necessary to confirm the left and right and vertical orientations of the storage containers.

Are formed on the wall portions 3a, 3b, respectively. In this case, each partition 7a, 7b, 7c has a function of storing a plurality (20 in this case) of tape cartridges 200 in a state of being separated from each other, as shown in FIG.

次に、収納容器1の使用方法について、図面を参照して説明する。   Next, the usage method of the storage container 1 is demonstrated with reference to drawings.

まず、図1,2,5に示すように、開口部10aを上向きにして収納容器1を載置する(以下、この収納容器1を「収納容器1A」ともいう)。次いで、図2,5に示すように、例えば、収納容器1Aにおける仕切部7a,7b,7cによって仕切られた左下隅の収納スペース20にテープカートリッジ200を収納する。続いて、仕切部7a,7b,7cによって仕切られた各収納スペース20,20・・(図6参照)にテープカートリッジ200を順次収納する。   First, as shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 5, the storage container 1 is placed with the opening 10a facing upward (hereinafter, the storage container 1 is also referred to as “storage container 1A”). Next, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, for example, the tape cartridge 200 is stored in the storage space 20 in the lower left corner partitioned by the partition portions 7a, 7b, and 7c in the storage container 1A. Subsequently, the tape cartridges 200 are sequentially stored in the storage spaces 20, 20,... (See FIG. 6) partitioned by the partition portions 7a, 7b, 7c.

次に、図6に示すように、全て(この場合20個)の収納スペース20にテープカートリッジ200をそれぞれ収納した収納容器1Aに対して、図7に示すように、他の収納容器1(以下、この収納容器1を「収納容器1B」ともいう)を開口部10aを下向きにした状態で覆い被せる。この際に、両収納容器1Aの各鍔部4と、収納容器1Bの各鍔部4とを突合させて、両収納容器1A,1Bにおける各々の凹凸部11同士を嵌合させる。これにより、両収納容器1A,1Bが各凹凸部11を介して連結されて、両収納容器1A,1Bによって収納箱100(以下、この収納箱100を「収納箱100A」ともいう)が構成される。この場合、仕切部7a,7b,7cによって各テープカートリッジ200が離間させられた状態で収納されているため、例えば、収納箱100を搬送する際に収納箱100が振動したとしても、収納箱100内の各テープカートリッジ200同士の摺動によってテープカートリッジ200が傷付けられる事態が確実に防止される。また、仕切部7a,7b,7cによって仕切られた収納スペース20にテープカートリッジ200を収納するため、テープカートリッジ200を全ての収納スペース20には収納しなかったとしても、つまり収納スペース20に空きがあったとしても、テープカートリッジ200のがたつきが確実に防止される。   Next, as shown in FIG. 7, as shown in FIG. 7, the other storage containers 1 (hereinafter referred to as the storage containers 1A) in which the tape cartridges 200 are stored in all (20 in this case) storage spaces 20, respectively. The storage container 1 is also referred to as “storage container 1B”) with the opening 10a facing downward. At this time, the flanges 4 of the storage containers 1A and the flanges 4 of the storage container 1B are brought into contact with each other, and the concave and convex portions 11 of the storage containers 1A and 1B are fitted together. As a result, the storage containers 1A and 1B are connected to each other through the concavo-convex portions 11, and a storage box 100 (hereinafter, the storage box 100 is also referred to as “storage box 100A”) is configured by the storage containers 1A and 1B. The In this case, since each tape cartridge 200 is stored in a separated state by the partition portions 7a, 7b, and 7c, for example, even if the storage box 100 vibrates when the storage box 100 is transported, the storage box 100 A situation in which the tape cartridge 200 is damaged by sliding between the tape cartridges 200 is reliably prevented. Further, since the tape cartridge 200 is stored in the storage space 20 partitioned by the partition portions 7a, 7b, and 7c, even if the tape cartridge 200 is not stored in all the storage spaces 20, there is no space in the storage space 20. Even if there is, rattling of the tape cartridge 200 is reliably prevented.

また、この収納容器1では、凹凸部11a,11bが、底部2の中心点Oを中心として互いに点対称の形状で、かつ凹凸部11a,11bのいずれか一方と他の収納容器1における凹凸部11a,11bのいずれか一方とが互いに嵌合可能な形状にそれぞれ形成されている。さらに、凹凸部11c,11dが、中心点Oを中心として互いに点対称の形状で、かつ凹凸部11c,11dのいずれか一方と他の収納容器1における凹凸部11c,11dのいずれか一方とが互いに嵌合可能な形状にそれぞれ形成されている。このため、各凹凸部11は、両収納容器1A,1Bにおける各々の凹凸部11同士が嵌合可能な位置から収納容器1Bを収納容器1Aに対して中心点Oを中心として半回転させた位置においても嵌合可能となっている。したがって、収納容器1Bを収納容器1Aに連結する(覆い被せる)際に、収納容器1Bにおける左右や上下の向きを確認する作業が不要な結果、その分、連結作業の効率を向上させることが可能となっている。   Further, in this storage container 1, the uneven portions 11 a and 11 b are point-symmetric with respect to the center point O of the bottom 2, and either one of the uneven portions 11 a and 11 b and the uneven portions in the other storage containers 1. Either one of 11a and 11b is formed in a shape that can be fitted to each other. Furthermore, the uneven portions 11c and 11d are symmetrical with respect to the center point O, and either one of the uneven portions 11c and 11d and any one of the uneven portions 11c and 11d in the other storage container 1 are formed. They are formed in shapes that can be fitted to each other. For this reason, each uneven | corrugated | grooved part 11 is the position which made the storage container 1B half rotation centering on the center point O with respect to the storage container 1A from the position which each uneven | corrugated | grooved part 11 in both storage containers 1A and 1B can fit. Can also be fitted. Therefore, when connecting (covering) the storage container 1B to the storage container 1A, it is not necessary to confirm the left and right or vertical orientation of the storage container 1B. As a result, the efficiency of the connection work can be improved accordingly. It has become.

次いで、上記と同様にして、新たな収納容器1(以下、この収納容器1を「収納容器1C」ともいう)にテープカートリッジ200を収納し、その収納容器1Cに他の新たな収納容器1(以下、この収納容器1を「収納容器1D」ともいう)を覆い被せて両収納容器1C,1Dを各々の凹凸部11を介して連結させる。これにより、テープカートリッジ200が収納された2つめの収納箱100(以下、この収納箱100を「収納箱100B」ともいう)が構成される。続いて、収納箱100Bにおける両収納容器1C,1Dの把手5を掴んで、図8に示すように、収納箱100Aの上に収納箱100Bを積み重ねる。この場合、収納箱100Aを構成する収納容器1Bにおける底部2の外面2aと、収納箱100Bを構成する収納容器1Cにおける底部2の外面2aとを突合させて両収納容器1B,1Cにおける各々の凹凸部12同士を嵌合させる。これにより、収納箱100A,100B同士が各凹凸部12を介して連結されて両者のずれが防止される。この場合、収納容器1B,1Cの把手5は、鍔部4c,4dの一部分を湾曲させることによって立体的形状に形成されている。このため、例えば、鍔部4c,4dに孔を形成して構成した把手とは異なり、把手5におけるバリ等の発生が少なく抑えられている。したがって、この収納容器1では、把手5を掴んだ際にそのようなバリ等で傷を負う事態が確実に防止される。   Next, in the same manner as described above, the tape cartridge 200 is stored in a new storage container 1 (hereinafter, this storage container 1 is also referred to as “storage container 1C”), and another new storage container 1 ( Hereinafter, the storage container 1 is also covered with a “storage container 1D”, and the storage containers 1C and 1D are connected to each other through the concavo-convex portions 11. Thus, a second storage box 100 in which the tape cartridge 200 is stored (hereinafter, this storage box 100 is also referred to as “storage box 100B”) is configured. Subsequently, the handle 5 of both the storage containers 1C and 1D in the storage box 100B is grasped, and the storage box 100B is stacked on the storage box 100A as shown in FIG. In this case, the outer surface 2a of the bottom part 2 of the storage container 1B constituting the storage box 100A and the outer surface 2a of the bottom part 2 of the storage container 1C constituting the storage box 100B are brought into contact with each other, and the respective irregularities in the two storage containers 1B and 1C. The parts 12 are fitted together. Thereby, storage box 100A, 100B is connected through each uneven | corrugated | grooved part 12, and deviation | shift between both is prevented. In this case, the handles 5 of the storage containers 1B and 1C are formed in a three-dimensional shape by curving a part of the flange portions 4c and 4d. For this reason, for example, unlike a handle configured by forming holes in the flange portions 4c and 4d, the occurrence of burrs or the like in the handle 5 is suppressed to a low level. Therefore, in this storage container 1, when the handle 5 is grasped, the situation where it is damaged by such a burr | flash etc. is prevented reliably.

また、この収納容器1では、凹凸部12a,12bが、底部2の中心点Oを中心として互いに点対称の形状にそれぞれ形成されている。さらに、凹凸部12c,12dが、中心点Oを中心として互いに点対称の形状で、かつ凹凸部12c,12dが他の収納容器1における凹凸部12a,12bのいずれにも嵌合可能な形状にそれぞれ形成されている。このため、各凹凸部12は、両収納容器1B,1Cにおける各々の凹凸部12同士が嵌合可能な位置から収納容器1Cを収納容器1Bに対して中心点Oを中心として半回転させた位置においても嵌合可能となっている。したがって、収納箱100Bを収納箱100Aの上に積み重ねる際に、収納容器1Cにおける左右や上下の向きを確認する作業が不要な結果、その分、積み重ね作業の効率を向上させることが可能となっている。   Further, in the storage container 1, the concavo-convex portions 12 a and 12 b are formed in a point-symmetric shape with respect to the center point O of the bottom portion 2. Further, the concave and convex portions 12c and 12d are point-symmetric with respect to the center point O, and the concave and convex portions 12c and 12d can be fitted into any of the concave and convex portions 12a and 12b in the other storage containers 1. Each is formed. For this reason, each uneven | corrugated | grooved part 12 is the position which made the storage container 1C half rotation centering on the center point O with respect to the storage container 1B from the position which each uneven | corrugated | grooved part 12 in both storage containers 1B and 1C can fit. Can also be fitted. Therefore, when stacking the storage box 100B on the storage box 100A, it is not necessary to confirm the left / right or top / bottom orientation of the storage container 1C. As a result, it is possible to improve the efficiency of the stacking work. Yes.

以下、上記の作業を繰り替えして収納容器1(収納箱100)にテープカートリッジ200を収納する。   Hereinafter, the above operation is repeated to store the tape cartridge 200 in the storage container 1 (storage box 100).

このように、この収納容器1によれば、底部2の中心点Oを中心として互いに点対称の形状でかつ互いに嵌合可能な形状に凹凸部11a,11bを形成すると共に、中心点Oを中心として互いに点対称の形状でかつ互いに嵌合可能な形状に凹凸部11c,11dを形成したことにより、一対の収納容器1,1における各々の凹凸部11同士が嵌合可能な位置から一方の収納容器1を他方の収納容器1に対して中心点Oを中心として半回転させた位置においても各凹凸部11同士を確実に嵌合させることができる。したがって、収納容器1を他方の収納容器1に覆い被せて連結させる際に、その収納容器1における左右や上下の向きを確認する作業を不要とすることができるため、連結作業の効率を十分に向上させることができる。   As described above, according to the storage container 1, the concave and convex portions 11 a and 11 b are formed in a shape that is point-symmetric with each other about the center point O of the bottom portion 2 and can be fitted to each other, and the center point O is the center. As the concave and convex portions 11c and 11d are formed in a shape that is point-symmetric with each other and can be fitted to each other, one storage is performed from a position where the concave and convex portions 11 in the pair of storage containers 1 and 1 can be fitted to each other. Even in a position where the container 1 is half-rotated around the center point O with respect to the other storage container 1, the concave and convex portions 11 can be reliably fitted to each other. Therefore, when the storage container 1 is covered and connected to the other storage container 1, it is not necessary to check the left and right or the vertical direction of the storage container 1, so that the efficiency of the connection operation is sufficiently high. Can be improved.

また、中心点Oを中心として互いに点対称の形状に凹凸部12a,12bを形成すると共に、中心点Oを中心として互いに点対称の形状でかつ他の収納容器1における凹凸部12a,12bのいずれにも嵌合可能な形状に凹凸部12c,12dを形成したことにより、一対の収納容器1,1における各々の凹凸部12同士が嵌合可能な位置から一方の収納容器1を他方の収納容器1に対して中心点Oを中心として半回転させた位置においても各凹凸部12同士を確実に嵌合させることができる。したがって、収納容器1(収納箱100)を他の収納容器1(他の収納箱100)の上に積み重ねる際に、その収納容器1における左右や上下の向きを確認する作業を不要とすることができるため、積み重ね作業の効率を十分に向上させることができる。   Further, the concave and convex portions 12a and 12b are formed so as to be symmetrical with respect to the center point O, and any of the concave and convex portions 12a and 12b in the other storage containers 1 are also symmetrical with respect to the central point O. Since the concave and convex portions 12c and 12d are formed in a shape that can be fitted to each other, one storage container 1 is moved from the position where the concave and convex portions 12 in the pair of storage containers 1 and 1 can be fitted to each other. 1 can be reliably fitted to each other even at a position half-rotated about the center point O with respect to 1. Therefore, when stacking the storage container 1 (storage box 100) on another storage container 1 (other storage box 100), it is not necessary to confirm the left and right or the vertical direction of the storage container 1. Therefore, the efficiency of stacking work can be sufficiently improved.

また、この収納容器1によれば、鍔部4c,4dの一部分を湾曲させることによって立体的形状に形成した把手5,5を備えたことにより、例えば、鍔部4c,4dに孔を形成して構成した把手とは異なり、把手5におけるバリ等の発生を少なく抑えることができるため、把手5を掴んだ際にバリ等で傷を負う事態を確実に防止することができる。   Moreover, according to this storage container 1, by providing the handles 5 and 5 formed in a three-dimensional shape by curving a part of the collars 4c and 4d, for example, holes are formed in the collars 4c and 4d. Unlike the handle configured as described above, the occurrence of burrs or the like in the handle 5 can be suppressed to a low level, so that it is possible to reliably prevent a situation in which a burr or the like is damaged when the handle 5 is gripped.

また、この収納容器1によれば、複数のテープカートリッジ200を互いに離間させた状態で収納させる仕切部7a,7b,7cを備えたことにより、例えば、テープカートリッジ200を収納した収納容器1(収納箱100)を搬送する際に収納容器1が振動したとしても、収納された各テープカートリッジ200同士の摺動によってテープカートリッジ200が傷付けられる事態を確実に防止することができる。また、仕切部7a,7b,7cによって仕切られた収納スペース20にテープカートリッジ200を収納することで、テープカートリッジ200を全ての収納スペース20には収納しなかったとしても、つまり収納スペース20に空きがあったとしても、テープカートリッジ200のがたつきを確実に防止することができる。   In addition, according to the storage container 1, by providing the partition portions 7a, 7b, and 7c for storing the plurality of tape cartridges 200 in a state of being separated from each other, for example, the storage container 1 that stores the tape cartridges 200 (storage Even when the storage container 1 vibrates when transporting the box 100), it is possible to reliably prevent the tape cartridge 200 from being damaged by sliding between the stored tape cartridges 200. Further, by storing the tape cartridge 200 in the storage space 20 partitioned by the partitions 7a, 7b, and 7c, even if the tape cartridge 200 is not stored in all the storage spaces 20, that is, the storage space 20 is empty.
