Description

  The present invention relates to a merchandise display case for putting merchandise in and displaying it.

  Conventional product display cases include cases called blister packs. In this method, a concave shape into which a product enters is molded with a transparent resin, and after placing the product, the concave portion is covered with a mount. Blister packs have been used for a long time and many improvements have been made. For example, there are those that can be quickly removed and reused, and those that can be easily removed by sliding the mount. There are also items that can be hung and made easier to display.

  Since these display cases are molded by squeezing a resin plate with a mold, they are rather thin and are often used for lightweight products. If it is a little thicker and heavier, use a material close to a box made of resin, not a blister pack.

Further, as a measure against the weight, there is a method using a tray-like cushioning material using a mount on the bottom of the resin container (see Patent Document 1).

  The product display case is a kind of packaging and is often used for relatively inexpensive accessories. Accordingly, there is a demand from the following viewpoints in addition to being transparent and easy to see the contents, and easy to read advertisements and explanations.

  First, it is easy to process. Since many of the products are relatively inexpensive, we want to avoid the case becoming expensive. In this sense, the blister pack tends to be costly because a mold is required to hot press mold the resin plate.

  Second, be strong. Even small items are made of metal, and some are heavy in volume. Further, the merchandise display case is often hung from a merchandise shelf and is required to be strong enough to prevent the merchandise from falling off the bottom of the box.

  Third, for recycling, it is necessary that the resin and paper can be easily separated. Some blister cases have a blister and a mount that are fixed with a stapler. In such a type, it is not easy to separate the blister portion that is a resin from the mount.

  Fourth, it is easy to take out and store the product. In recent years, there is a case where a product is taken out at a sales floor to check the touch or the like. In that case, it is necessary to remove the product from the case and store it again. In many cases, once a blister pack is opened, the commercial value is lost and it is often impossible to re-store. This is because opening the blister pack involves destruction of the pack.

  The present invention has been conceived in view of the above viewpoint.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the product display case of the present invention is a product display case that can store products and has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped or substantially cube-shaped storage unit, and the storage unit is a plate-shaped first case. And a bottom surface including at least a plate-like second material different from the first material, the side surface extending from the bottom surface end. The support body holds the bottom surface on the side surface by engaging with the bottom surface.

  The product display case of the present invention can store a product having a relatively large thickness, and the contents are easy to see. Further, the resin main body and the mount can be easily separated and have strength against bottom-out. Furthermore, the product display case of the present invention is easy to create and does not require a press die for hot press molding of a resin plate, and therefore can be manufactured at low cost.

  FIG. 1 shows a product display case of the present invention. The cylindrical main body (10) is made of a transparent or translucent resin. Therefore, the product put in can be seen in detail. The material is not particularly limited, but materials that are easy to process and recycle are suitable, such as PP (polypropylene), PE (polyethylene), and PET (polyethylene terephthalate).

  The cylindrical main body (10) includes a front surface (12), a rear surface (14), a side surface composed of two lateral surfaces, a right lateral surface (16) and a left lateral surface (18), an upper lid (30), and a bottom portion (40). Become. The direction of the upper lid (30) is referred to as the upward direction, and the direction of the bottom portion (40) is referred to as the downward direction. The cylindrical body (10) serves as a product storage unit.

  On the back side, there is an extending portion (20) extending upward, and a hanging hole (22) is provided in the extending contact portion (20). The extending portion (20) has a folded extending portion (21) and sandwiches a mount extending portion to be described later. A hole (23) is also formed in the folded extension part (21) so as to be suspended.

  The products can be displayed in the product display case of the present invention and displayed in a suspended state on the display shelf or the like using the suspension holes (22).

  In FIG. 2, the state which opened the upper cover (30) is shown. The upper lid (30) includes an upper outer flap (31) and two upper inner flaps (32, 33). The upper outer flap (31) has an insertion piece (34) and is folded from the front surface (12) to the back surface (14) of the cylindrical main body (10). One piece of the upper inner flap (32, 33) is provided on each of the left and right lateral surfaces, and the upper outer flap (31) is folded before the upper outer flap (31) is folded. ) To prevent falling inside. By doing so, the upper outer flap (31) can be easily pulled out, and the upper lid (30) can be easily opened.

  On the other hand, a cut-out portion (35) is provided on the back side of the upper inner flaps (32, 33), and a cut (36) is provided in the insertion piece (34) of the outer flap (31). By inserting the insertion piece (34) into the rear surface (14) of the cylindrical main body (10) and the cut-off portion (35) of the upper inner flap, the cut-off portion (35) and the cut piece (34) are caught. The upper lid (30) is prevented from opening easily.

  That is, the upper lid (30) can be opened and closed any number of times, and is greatly different from a blister pack in which once opened, the commercial value is lost.

  Such an upper lid is convenient when the store clerk takes out the product from the product display case, shows it to the customer, explains it, and returns it to the case.

  FIG. 3 shows the bottom (40) of the cylindrical body. The bottom (40) is provided with a pair of lower inner flaps (41, 42), a front tongue (43), and a rear tongue (44). The lower inner flaps (41, 42) are cut off obliquely at the back side corners (45). The front side corner (46) is maintained at a substantially right angle.

  As seen in FIG. 3, the bottom (40) of the cylindrical body has no outer flap, and this portion alone does not become a lid. The product display case of the present invention combines a mount (described later), a tongue (43, 44) of the bottom (40) of the cylindrical body (10), and a lower inner flap (41, 43). A lower lid (90) to be described later is formed.

  The cylindrical main body has a folding part (50) for fixing the material in a cylindrical shape. By welding the folding portion (50) and the lateral surface, the cylindrical main body becomes a cylindrical shape.

  In FIG. 4, the expanded view of a cylindrical main body is shown. A resin sheet as a material is cut into a shape as shown in FIG. 4, and a dotted line portion is bent. The folding process for the dotted lines may be all mountain folds. The extension part (20) is provided with a folded extension part (21) in order to have a double structure. A hole (23) corresponding to the suspension hole (22) is also provided. Therefore, it is folded at the dotted line (24), and a mount (70), which will be described later, is sandwiched between the extended portion (20) and the folded extended portion (21), and the mount is positioned and fixed.

  Moreover, as above-mentioned, a cylindrical main body is made into a cylinder shape by welding a folding piece (50). Therefore, in the drawing, the folding piece (50) is provided on the back surface (14), but it may be at the end when the development view is made, and it is not necessary to limit it to the back surface depending on how to make the development view.

  FIG. 5 shows a development view of the mount (70). The material of the mount is not particularly limited. However, materials that are easy to process and easy to recycle are preferred. For example, paper based on pulp is one suitable material.

  The mount (70) cuts out one long material and bends it into a double structure. The dotted line (61) is a mountain fold, and the alternate long and short dash line (62) is a valley fold. A hole (60) of the same size is provided in a portion corresponding to the suspension hole (22) of the cylindrical main body. Further, a front slit (63) and a rear slit (64) for inserting the tongues (43, 44) at the bottom of the cylindrical main body are provided on the bottom surface.

  FIG. 6 shows a state where the mount of FIG. 5 is folded. The mount (70) is composed of a mount extending portion (72), a mount back portion (76), a mount bottom surface (80), and a turn-back portion (85). At least the bottom surface (80) of the mount and the folded portion (85) are created in accordance with the inner dimensions of the cylindrical main body (10). This is because the bottom surface (80) of the mount becomes the lower lid (90) together with the tongues (43, 44) and the lower inner flaps (41, 42) at the bottom (40) of the cylindrical main body (10).

  Since the mount (70) has a double structure, the mount back surface portion (76) has a mount front / back surface portion (77) and a mount back surface back surface portion (78), and the mount bottom surface (80) is the top surface of the mount ( 81) and a bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount. The folded portion (85) is integrated with at least the bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount. When the mount (70) has a double structure, the mount can be pulled out at a time when the mount is separated from the main body. The point of separating the mount from the main body will be described later. In addition, the meaning that the mount (70) has a double structure is that the mount front / back surface portion (77) and the mount back / back surface portion (78) are integrated, and when the mount back surface portion is composed of a plurality of sheets. , At least partly connected and integrated.

  Further, slits (63, 64) for inserting the tongue portions (43, 44) of the cylindrical main body (10) are provided on the bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount.

  FIG. 7 to FIG. 9 show the case where the mount (70) is inserted into the cylindrical main body (10) to form the lower lid (90).

  Referring to FIG. 7, the bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount is drawn out from the cylindrical main body (10), and the bottom bottom surface (81) of the mount is left in the cylindrical main body (10). That is, the lower inner flaps (41, 42) and the front tongue portion (43) are located outside the cylindrical main body from the upper surface (81) of the mount.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the folded portion (85) of the bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount is inserted inside the front surface (12) of the cylindrical main body (10) while leaving the front tongue (43). Then, the front tongue portion (43) and the rear tongue portion (44) are respectively inserted into the front slit (63) and the rear slit (64) of the bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount.

  FIG. 9 shows a state in which the tongues (43, 44) are inserted into the slits (63, 64) on the bottom surface (82) of the mount. The lower lid (90) of the cylindrical main body (10) is formed by the cylindrical main body (10) and the bottom surface (80) of the mount (70). That is, the lower lid (90) is composed of a pair of lower inner flaps (41, 42), front and rear tongues (43, 44), an upper bottom surface (81), and a lower bottom surface (80) 82).

  In the lower lid (90) of this structure, the lower inner flaps (41, 42) of the bottom portion (40) of the cylindrical main body (10) are sandwiched between the mount upper bottom surface (81) and the mount lower surface (82). By doing in this way, the intensity | strength with respect to the downward force of a lower cover (90) becomes high. As a result, there is no bottoming out even if the product is put into the cylindrical main body.

  Further, the bottom surface (80) of the mount is fixed by fixing the bottom surface (80) of the mount with the front and rear tongues (43, 44) which are a part of the cylindrical main body, and the bottom cover (90) is also positioned. Become.

  Note that the folded portion (85) having substantially the same width as the front surface (12) is restricted from moving left and right by the inner surface of the lateral surfaces (16, 18) of the cylindrical main body (10). Accordingly, the bottom surface (80) of the mount unit integrated with the folded portion (85) is also less displaced left and right, and is more fixed and positioned.

  When using the product display case of the present invention, after assembling the lower lid (90) as described above, the product is stored in the cylindrical main body (10), and the upper lid (30) is closed as follows.

  First, on the upper side of the cylindrical main body (10), a folded mount (70) is arranged along the back surface (14), and the mount extending portion (21) is formed by the extending portion (20) and the folded extending portion (21). 72) is inserted. Thereafter, the upper inner flaps (32, 33) are folded into the cylindrical main body, and the insertion portion (34) of the upper outer flap (31) is placed between the upper inner flaps (32, 33) and the back surface of the mount (77). Plug in.

  In addition, when the folding extension part (21) is long in the downward direction, the insertion part (34) is inserted between the upper inner flaps (32, 33) and the folding extension part (21). This is because the folded extension portion (21) is located in the front direction from the mount front and back surfaces (77). The product is stored as described above, and the product display case of the present invention is completed.

  Next, separation of the mount and the cylindrical main body will be described. The first purpose of the product display case of the present invention is to display products. However, after the product is purchased, the mount (70) is removed from the cylindrical body (10) in order to read the description written on the mount (70) or to be disposed separately from the cylindrical body (10). ) And separated.

  The mount (70) is taken out as follows. First, the upper lid (30) is opened, and the folded extension portion (21) of the cylindrical main body is opened. Then, the mount extending portion (72) is exposed. Therefore, the mount extending portion (72) is pinched and pulled out.

  The bottom surface (80) of the mount united with the mount (70) forms a part of the lower lid (90), and is fixed by being folded and fitted to a part of the cylindrical main body (10). ing. However, as described below, the mount (70) can be easily pulled out by the actions of the lower inner flaps (43, 44) of the cylindrical main body and the folded portion (85).

  FIG. 10 shows a state of deformation of the lower lid (90) when the mount (70) and the cylindrical main body (10) are separated.

  When the mount extending portion (72) is pulled, the back side of the bottom bottom surface (82) is gradually displaced upward (100). Accordingly, the rear tongue portion (44) comes out from the rear slit (64) of the bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount. The front tongue (43) still does not come out of the front slit (63).

  Since the lower inner flap (41, 42) was sandwiched between the upper bottom surface (81) of the mount and the lower bottom surface (82) of the mount, the lower bottom surface (82) of the mount sideways the lower inner flap (41, 42). Pull upward while deforming in the direction. In other words, when the bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount is removed, the lateral surfaces (16, 18) are deformed in the lateral direction.

  At this time, the back side of the bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount is removed along the slope on the back side of the lower inner flaps (41, 42) cut off obliquely. If the back side (45) of the lower inner flap is not cut obliquely in this way, the mount (70) will not come out along the lower inner flap.

  Further, the lower bottom surface (82) of the mount is removed while the lower inner flaps (41, 42) are deformed as described above, so that it is removed while being regulated by the left and right lower inner flaps. That is, the rear slit (64) goes out without changing the direction in the direction opposite to the direction in which the rear tongue (44) is inserted. As a result, the rear tongue (44) is smoothly removed from the rear slit (64).

  FIG. 11 shows a state in which the mount (70) is seen from the side. The right side surface, ie, the lower side of the right side surface (16), as viewed from the front surface (12) of the cylindrical main body (10) is shown. Although the lower inner flap (42) was sandwiched between the upper bottom surface (81) of the mount and the lower bottom surface (82) of the mount, when the mount is pulled out in the beginning, the lower bottom surface (82) of the mount becomes the lower inner flap (82). 42) Follow the rear cut-off.

  The deformed lower inner flap (42) pushes the mount upper bottom surface (81) upward. As described above, the upward direction is the direction of the upper lid (30). In other words, the bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount and the top bottom surface (81) of the mount are separated from each other from the state of being overlapped via the lower inner flap. Thus, by separating the upper and lower mounts (81 and 82) sandwiching the lower inner flap (42), the lower inner flap is more easily removed.

  FIG. 12 shows a state where the mount (70) is further removed. The rear tongue portion (44) is detached from the rear slit (64) of the bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount. Further, the lower inner flaps (41, 43) escape to the inner side of the lateral surface.

  In this state, the mount (70) and the cylindrical main body (10) are connected only by the front slit (63) and the front tongue (43). Since the cylindrical main body (10) is made of a material that is easily deformed, such as resin, it may be greatly deformed near the front tongue (43) and may not come out of the front slit (63).

  However, if the folded portion (85) is integrated with the bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount, the bottom bottom surface (82) of the mount is subject to left and right restrictions and can only move upward. As a result, the front slit (63) and the front tongue part (43) are separated in a direction completely opposite to that when the front tongue part (43) is inserted, and are smoothly separated.

  Further, since the front side (46) of the lower inner flap (42) is substantially right-angled, that is, is not cut off obliquely, the upper bottom surface (81) of the mount (70) until just before the mount (70) comes off the front tongue (43). Push up upward.

  For this reason, the upper surface (81) of the mount restricts the folding portion (85) of the mount from being inclined from the inner front surface to the rear surface side of the cylindrical main body (10). Therefore, while the mount (70) is pulled out from the cylindrical main body (10), the folded portion (85) is placed inside the front surface of the cylindrical main body (10).

  As a result, as described above, the front tongue portion (43) can be pulled out without changing the direction in the direction opposite to that when the front tongue portion (43) is inserted into the front slit (63) of the mount bottom surface (82). In other words, the upper bottom surface (81) of the mount helps the folding portion (85) to be positioned inside the front surface while the mount (70) is pulled out, and the front tongue (43) is smoothly removed from the front slit (63). .

  As described above, the product display case of the present invention can be easily separated from the cylindrical main body by pinching and pulling out the mount extending portion (72).

  The present invention can be applied to a commodity display case using a material in which a material constituting the side surface / upper surface and a material constituting the bottom surface are different. For example, it can be applied to a plastic case or the like.
