Description

  The present invention relates to a flower supporter that is a decorative container used when placing or displaying offerings such as fruits and artificial flowers in funerals and the like.

For example, as shown in Patent Document 1, a flower supporter (spare box for a flower ring) is a decorative container used when placing or displaying an offering of fruit or the like at a funeral or the like. It is used to decorate offerings in combination with other peripheral elements. When the funerals are completed, the flower supporters are often brought back to the people who visited the funeral inquiries along with the offerings that were placed. Therefore, it is desirable that the cost of the flower supporter is as low as possible, and how to increase the assembly work efficiency and suppress the manufacturing cost is a problem.
For example, Patent Document 2 discloses a paper box that can be easily assembled by simply fitting one member to the other member. FIG. 6 quotes FIG. 3 of Patent Document 2.
As shown in FIG. 6, the paper box disclosed in Patent Document 2 includes a hollow cylindrical mount 1 formed so as to expand from below to above, a mount 15 having a bottom plate 16 and a tongue piece 17; have. The mount 15 is formed so as to expand from the lower side to the upper side like the mount 1 when the tongue piece 17 is raised.
This paper box is easily assembled by inserting a mount 15 from above into a mount 1 formed in a cylindrical shape. And in the paper box assembled in this way, both the mount 1 and the mount 15 are shaped to expand from below to above, so that the mount 15 is prevented from falling below the mount 1. Yes.
Japanese Patent No. 2996740 Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 58-91512

However, the paper box disclosed in Patent Document 2 is configured such that the upward movement of the mount 15 after the mount 15 is inserted into the mount 1 is not limited, and the mount 15 is easily displaced upward. Yes. Therefore, when the mount 15 is bonded to the mount 1 by gluing or the like, there arises a problem that the mount 15 is shifted upward before the mount 1 and the mount 15 are bonded. In particular, when the mount 15 has a tongue piece 17 bent from the bottom plate 16 as in the paper box disclosed in Patent Document 2, the force of the tongue piece 17 returning from the bent state is caused by the force. The mount 15 is easily displaced upward.
For this reason, when assembling the paper box disclosed in Patent Document 2, an operator keeps the paper box 1 and the paper board 15 bonded to each other, and other members such as a tape and a clip are used. It is necessary to temporarily fix them, and there is a problem that the assembly work efficiency is poor.
Further, when an offering such as fruit is placed in a paper box constituted by the mount 1 and the mount 15, the offering comes into contact with the tongue piece 17 of the mount 15 and is outside the tongue piece 17. In this case, a force is applied between the tongue piece 17 of the mount 15 and the mount 1 in a direction in which the mount 1 is shifted downward. There is also a problem that the joints of these are easily detached.
Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and the object of the present invention is to prevent positional displacement after fitting two members constituting the flower supporter with a simple configuration. , It is to provide a flower supporter that can improve the assembly work efficiency.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a bottom plate portion formed in a first polygonal shape, and connected to a peripheral portion of the bottom plate portion, and from the peripheral portion when bent upward from the peripheral portion. A main body member having a plurality of outer peripheral plate portions that expand in an upward direction;
The lower bottom has substantially the same shape as the bottom plate portion of the main body member, and the upper bottom is formed by at least the cross section of the plurality of outer peripheral plate portions bent upward from the peripheral edge portion of the bottom plate portion. An annular member having an internal space formed in substantially the same shape as the second polygonal shape expanded from the one polygonal shape, and applied to a flower supporter comprising:
The bottom plate portion is formed such that when the outer peripheral plate portion is bent upward, the main body member is formed with a protruding portion that protrudes outward from the peripheral edge portion of the bottom plate portion on substantially the same plane as the bottom plate portion. It is comprised as a flower supporter which has a notch formed toward the said outer peripheral board part side from the peripheral part.

In the flower supporter according to the present invention, the main body member is inserted into the inner space of the annular member from above until the protruding portion formed on the bottom plate portion of the main body member is positioned below the lower bottom of the annular member. As a result, the protruding portion comes into contact with the lower bottom of the annular member, and the main body member can be prevented from being displaced upward (that is, the annular member is displaced downward). Also in the flower supporter, since the main body member and the annular member are both shaped to expand upward from below, as described above, the main body member falls below the annular member. Is prevented.
As described above, according to the present invention, the simple structure in which the notch is formed from the peripheral edge of the bottom plate portion toward the outer peripheral plate portion, the protrusion protruding outward from the peripheral portion of the bottom plate portion. Protruding portions can be formed to prevent vertical displacement of the main body member and the annular member. Therefore, after the main body member and the annular member are fitted, until they are bonded and fixed by, for example, gluing, they are pressed by an operator as in the past, or temporarily fixed using another member. Since there is no need to keep it, the assembly work efficiency can be improved and the production cost of the flower supporter can be reduced.
Further, when an offering such as fruit is placed on the flower supporter configured by fitting the body member and the annular member, the offering comes into contact with the outer peripheral plate portion of the body member, Even if an outward load is applied to the outer peripheral plate portion, the downward displacement of the annular member is prevented by the protruding portion, so that the joining between the main body member and the annular member is difficult to come off. Also play.
Furthermore, depending on the case, it is also possible to use it as a flower supporter simply by fitting without attaching the annular member and the main body member by gluing or the like.

The annular member may be formed by connecting two or more belt-like members. Thereby, the size of the template cut out as the annular member can be reduced, and the material cost can be saved.
Furthermore, the engaging part which engages mutually is formed in the both ends of each said strip | belt-shaped member, and the assembly operator can assemble two or more said strip | belt-shaped members easily.
By the way, the material of the main body member and the material of the annular member may be any one of paperboard, cardboard paper, plastic cardboard, board bamboo, resin, synthetic resin, and foamed resin, or a combination thereof.

  According to the present invention, the protruding portion that protrudes outward from the peripheral portion of the bottom plate portion is formed by a simple structure in which a notch is formed from the peripheral portion of the bottom plate portion toward the outer peripheral plate portion. In addition, the vertical displacement of the main body member and the annular member can be prevented. Therefore, after the main body member and the annular member are fitted, until they are bonded and fixed by, for example, gluing, they are pressed by an operator as in the past, or temporarily fixed using another member. Since there is no need to keep it, the assembly work efficiency can be improved, and the production cost of the flower supporter can be suppressed. Further, when an offering such as fruit is placed on the flower supporter configured by fitting the body member and the annular member, the offering comes into contact with the outer peripheral plate portion of the body member, Even if an outward load is applied to the outer peripheral plate portion, the downward displacement of the annular member is prevented by the protruding portion, so that the joining between the main body member and the annular member is difficult to come off. Also play. Furthermore, depending on the case, it is also possible to use it as a flower supporter simply by fitting without attaching the annular member and the main body member by gluing or the like.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings so that the present invention can be understood. The following embodiment is an example embodying the present invention, and does not limit the technical scope of the present invention.
Here, FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of the flower supporter X according to the embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a development view of the main body member 20 of the flower supporter X, and FIG. FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a state in which the main body member 20 and the annular member 30 of the flower supporter X are fitted.
First, the outline | summary of the flower supporter X which concerns on embodiment of this invention is demonstrated using FIG.
As shown in FIG. 1, the flower supporter X has a main body member 20 having a bottom plate portion 21 fitted into an annular member 30 formed in a hollow annular shape, and the main body member 20 and the annular member 30 are glued and fixed. This is a dish-like container having a substantially bottomed inverted polygonal pyramid that can be easily formed.
The main body member 20 is a bottom plate portion 21 having a 14-corner shape (an example of a first polygonal shape) and a conical surface connected to the peripheral portion of the bottom plate portion 21, and is bent upward from the peripheral portion. And a plurality of outer peripheral plate portions 22 that are widened upward from the peripheral edge portion.
The annular member 30 is substantially configured by connecting two belt-like members 31, and is formed so as to expand upward like the outer peripheral plate portion 22 of the main body member 20. Here, the lower bottom of the internal space of the annular member 30 is formed in substantially the same shape as the bottom plate portion 21 of the main body member 20, and the upper bottom is a plurality of outer peripheries bent upward from the peripheral portion of the bottom plate portion 21. It is formed in substantially the same shape as a 14-corner shape (an example of a second polygonal shape) formed at the upper end portion of the plate portion 22. Note that the upper bottom of the inner space of the annular member 30 is not the upper end portion of the outer peripheral plate portion 22 but is expanded more than the 14-sided shape of at least the bottom plate portion 21 formed by the cross section of the outer peripheral plate portion 22. In other words, it may be formed in substantially the same shape as the 14-corner shape. Thereby, the downward displacement of the main body member 20 after the main body member 20 is fitted into the annular member 30 (that is, the upward displacement of the annular member 30) is prevented.
Further, as will be described below, in the flower supporter X according to the present invention, the main body member 20 is displaced upward (i.e., the downward direction of the annular member 30 after the main body member 20 is fitted into the annular member 30). Misalignment) is prevented.

As shown in the developed view of FIG. 2, the main body member 20 includes a 14-sided bottom plate portion 21 and a plurality of outer peripheries connected to the peripheral edge portion of the bottom plate portion 21 by fold lines 21 a (perforations). And a plate portion 22. Each of the outer peripheral plate portions 22 includes a lower base 23 that is one side of the peripheral portion of the bottom plate portion 21, an upper base 24 that is one side of the outer periphery of the outer peripheral plate portion 22, and left and right sides that connect the lower base 23 and the upper base 24. The long leg 25 forms an isosceles trapezoid.
The plurality of outer peripheral plate portions 22 include an outer peripheral plate portion 22a having a notch 21b having a substantially trapezoidal shape from a part of the fold 21a toward the outer peripheral plate portion 22 side, and an outer peripheral plate not having the notch 21b. The portions 22b are alternately included. The notch 21b is for forming a protruding portion 21c that protrudes outward from the peripheral edge portion of the bottom plate portion 21 on substantially the same plane as the bottom plate portion 21 when the outer peripheral plate portion 22a is bent upward. is there. The shape of the notch 21b is not limited to a substantially trapezoidal shape, and may be a rectangular shape or an arc shape.
2 shows an example in which the outer peripheral plate portions 22a and the outer peripheral plate portions 22b are alternately formed. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the outer peripheral plate portions 22 are all the outer peripheral plate portions 22a. It is also conceivable as another embodiment that the outer peripheral plate portion 22a has a smaller configuration.

As shown in FIG. 1, the main body member 20 configured as described above is configured such that the outer peripheral plate portion 22 is bent upward at the fold line 21 a so that the legs 25 of the plurality of outer peripheral plate portions 22 are in contact with each other. , A substantially bottomed inverted polygonal pyramid that expands upward from the peripheral edge of the bottom plate portion 21 is formed.
At this time, in the main body member 20, since the notch 21b is formed in the outer peripheral plate portion 22a as described above, the substantially trapezoidal protruding portion 21c corresponding to the notch 21b, as shown in FIG. It will remain in the state which protruded toward the outer side from the baseplate part 21. FIG. In the flower supporter X according to the embodiment of the present invention, displacement of the main body member 20 and the annular member 30 is prevented by a simple configuration in which the notch 21b is formed in the main body member 20, as will be described later.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 3, each of the two belt-like members 31 constituting the annular member 30 has a plurality of isosceles trapezoidal shapes formed by a lower base 32 and an upper base 33 and legs 34 connecting the left and right thereof. The section plate portion 35 is a substantially arc-shaped member configured to be connected by the legs 34 so as to be continuous. Each section plate portion 35 is formed in substantially the same shape as the outer peripheral plate portion 22 of the main body member 20.
As shown in FIG. 3, male and female engaging portions 31 a and 31 b for engaging the two belt-like members 31 with each other are formed at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the belt-like member 31. The annular member 30 is integrally assembled by bending the section plate portions 35 of the two band-shaped members 31 with the legs 34 and engaging the engaging portions 31a and 31b of each of the band-shaped members 31 (see FIG. 1). At this time, as shown in FIG. 1, the annular member 30 is firmly integrated by fixing with the adhesive tape 31 c from above with the engaging portions 31 a and 31 b engaged.
In the annular member 30 assembled in this way, as shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of lower bases 32 forming the lower base of the internal space form a 14-sided shape having substantially the same shape as the bottom plate portion 21 of the main body member 20. ing. A plurality of upper bases 33 forming the upper base of the internal space of the annular member 30 are the upper base 24 (upper end) of the outer peripheral plate portion 22 when the outer peripheral plate portion 22 of the main body member 20 is bent upward. It is formed in substantially the same shape as the 14-sided square formed by
In addition, although the structure where the annular member 30 is divided | segmented into the two strip | belt-shaped members 31 is demonstrated here, this annular member 30 may be comprised by one member or three or more members.

FIG. 4 shows a flower supporter X formed by fitting the main body member 20 and the annular member 30 configured as described above.
Specifically, when assembling the flower supporter X by fitting the main body member 20 and the annular member 30, the lower bottom 32 of the band-shaped member 31 of the annular member 30 is above the protrusion 21 c formed on the main body member 20. The main body member 20 is fitted into the annular member 30 from above until it is positioned at, and the main body member 20 and the annular member 30 are fixed by gluing.
Here, each of the outer peripheral plate portions 22 of the main body member 20 has an angle formed between the bottom plate portion 21 and the outer peripheral plate portion 22 by inserting the main body member 20 into the annular member 30 so that the section plate of the annular member 30 is. It is bent upward so as to be equal to the angle formed by the portion 35. The strip-shaped member 31 has a section plate so that when the main body member 20 is fitted into the annular member 30, the upper base 24 of the outer peripheral plate portion 22 of the main body member 20 and the upper base 33 of the strip-shaped member 31 coincide. It is desirable that the length of the leg 34 of the portion 35 be shorter than the length of the leg 25 of the outer peripheral plate portion 22 of the main body member 20 by the length of the protruding portion 21c. Of course, the upper bottom 24 of the outer peripheral plate portion 22 of the main body member 20 and the upper bottom 33 of the band-shaped member 31 may not coincide with each other.

In the flower supporter X assembled in this way, as shown in FIG. 4, the annular member 30 attached to the outer periphery of the main body member 20 is projected to the protruding portion 21 c protruding outward from the outer peripheral plate portion 22 a of the main body member 20. Since the contact is made, the downward displacement of the annular member 30 (the upward displacement of the main body member 20) is prevented. Further, as described above, both the main body member 20 and the annular member 30 are formed so as to expand upward, so that the downward displacement of the main body member 20 (the upward position of the annular member 30). Misalignment is prevented. That is, in the flower supporter X, when the main body member 20 and the annular member 30 are fitted, the upward and downward movement of the main body member 20 (that is, the downward and upward movement of the annular member 30) is restricted. The
Therefore, as in the past (see, for example, Patent Document 2), until the main body member 20 and the annular member 30 are bonded together by gluing or the like, the operator holds them, or other tape or clip or the like. Since there is no need to temporarily fix the member, the assembly work efficiency can be improved, and the manufacturing cost of the flower supporter X can be reduced. Further, when an offering such as fruit is placed on the flower supporter X configured by fitting the main body member 20 and the annular member 30, the offering comes into contact with the outer peripheral plate portion 22 of the main body member 20. Even if an outward load is applied to the outer peripheral plate portion 22, the downward displacement of the annular member 30 is prevented by the protruding portion 21 c, so that the joining between the main body member 20 and the annular member 30 is lost. It also has the effect of being difficult.
In addition, the flower supporter X has a structure in which the main body member 20 and the annular member 30 are prevented from being displaced by the protruding portion 21c formed flush with the bottom plate portion 21 of the main body member 20. There is an important effect that no unnecessary space is formed on the back side, and it is not bulky even when stacked. Furthermore, the fact that there is no space on the back side of the main body member 20 means that even if a large number of offerings such as fruits are placed on the body member 20, it does not lose its shape and is strong.

When the main body member 20 is fitted into the annular member 30, the projecting portion 21c comes into contact with the inner surface of the annular member 30, so that the main body member 20 or the annular member 30 can be slightly deformed at least during assembly. It is desirable to form with the material which becomes.
For example, the material of the main body member 20 and the material of the annular member 30 may be any material such as paperboard, corrugated paper, plastic corrugated paper, board bamboo, resin, synthetic resin, foamed resin, or a combination thereof. Specifically, it is conceivable to use corrugated cardboard as the material of the main body member 20 and resin for the annular member 30.
When the main body member 20 and the annular member 30 are formed of resin, they may be assembled after being softened by heating. Further, when a highly rigid material is used for the main body member 20, the outer peripheral plate portion 22 is broken (folded) when it is started up by heating, water treatment, etc., or by reducing the wall thickness. It is desirable to prevent this.

Further, when an object such as fruit is placed on the main body member 20, the annular member 30 that supports the downward movement of the main body member 20 is not broken in the longitudinal direction. 30 is required to have strength in the longitudinal direction. Therefore, when corrugated paper is used as the material of the annular member 30, the longitudinal direction of the belt-like member 31 constituting the annular member 30 and the direction of formation of the air groove formed in the corrugated paper are as substantially parallel as possible. In other words, it is desirable to cut out the belt-like member 31 from the corrugated paper so that an air groove is formed in the longitudinal direction of the belt-like member 31. Thereby, compared with the case where the longitudinal direction of the strip | belt-shaped member 31 and the formation direction of the air groove of corrugated paperboard become substantially perpendicular | vertical, a fracture strength can be raised.
Similarly, when other materials are used for the annular member 30, the longitudinal direction of the strip-shaped member 31 is a direction in which the breaking strength of the material is high so that the strip-shaped member 31 is not easily broken in the longitudinal direction. Thus, it is desirable to form the belt-like member 31. For example, in the case of a material having a grain, the direction of the formation and the longitudinal direction of the band-shaped member 31 are substantially the same for a material having a formation direction of plastic or the like so that the direction of the grain and the longitudinal direction of the band-shaped member 31 are substantially parallel. In a material having a weaving direction or the like so as to be parallel, it is desirable to form the band-shaped member 31 so that the direction in which the breaking strength is high in the weaving direction and the longitudinal direction of the band-shaped member 31 are substantially parallel.

FIG. 5 is a development view showing a main body member 20 ′ and an annular member 30 ′, which are modifications of the main body member 20 and the annular member 30.
As shown in FIG. 5A, in the main body member 20 ′, a substantially circular notch 26 is formed across the outer peripheral plate portion 22 and the bottom plate portion 21. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5B, in the band-shaped member 31 ′, a semicircular cutout 36 is formed at the lower end of each connection portion (leg 34) of the section plate portion 35. Note that the shape of the notches 26 and 36 may be other shapes such as a rectangular shape.
When the main body member 20 ′ thus configured and the annular member 30 formed by the two band-shaped members 31 ′ are fitted together, the protruding portion 21 c formed on the main body member 20 ′ has the band-shaped member 31 ′. By shifting the main body member 20 ′ and fitting it into the annular member 30 so as to be positioned in the notch 36, contact between the protruding portion 21 c and the inner surface of the annular member 30 can be avoided.
Then, after the main body member 20 ′ is fitted into the annular member 30, the outer peripheral plate portion 22 and the section plate portion 35 are aligned by rotating left and right so that the main body member 20 ′ and the annular member 30 are relatively displaced. At this time, since the notch 26 is formed in the main body member 20 ′, it is possible to easily shift the main body member 20 ′ and the annular member 30 to align the outer peripheral plate portion 22 and the section plate portion 35. . Even when the main body member 20 (see FIG. 2) in which the notch 26 is not formed is used, a dimensional difference that allows the annular member 30 ′ to be shifted or the annular member 30 ′ is provided. By giving the flexibility to such an extent that it can be shifted, the outer peripheral plate portion 22 and the section plate portion 35 can be similarly shifted and matched.
