The storage box described in Patent Document 1 can arrange the partition plate in a vertical and horizontal state, so that the partition section can be made fine, but its size is regulated by a kerf attached to the partition plate, and its size can be freely set. It cannot be changed.
In addition, the storage box described in Patent Document 2 can change the position of the partition plate to some extent by a large number of grooves, but the partition plate cannot be arranged in an intersecting state, and the size and position of the partition are changed. Is still inadequate.

  The present invention provides a storage box with a variable partition which can freely change the vertical and horizontal positions of the partition plate, freely change the position and size of the partition, and can stably hold the partition.

  The present invention is a storage box with a partition comprising a box with an open top surface and a partition plate attached to the box, and a plurality of vertical insertion grooves are provided on all inner side surfaces of the box, and are fitted into the insertion grooves. A plurality of vertical insertion grooves are provided in at least a part of one surface of the partition plate (a), and a plurality of partition plates (b) are mounted and fixed by the vertical insertion grooves of the box and the vertical insertion grooves of the partition plate (a). By this, it is a storage box with a variable partition comprised so that a partition division could be changed.

  In addition, the present invention preferably has the box with the upper surface open, the partition plates (a) and (b) to be mounted on the box, and a lid that covers the box, and the lid is minute on the entire inner surface. The above-mentioned storage box with a variable partition, which is configured so as to stably hold the partition section by providing unevenness and bringing the upper and lower sides of the partition plates (a) and (b) into close contact with the minute unevenness on the inner surface of the lid. Preferably, in the above-mentioned storage box with a variable partition, the plurality of vertical insertion grooves are formed of a plastic molding plate in which a large number of rows having a bulged section are erected.

More preferably, the wall surface constituting the large number of vertical insertion grooves is formed of a plastics forming plate in which a large number of rows having a bulged section are formed substantially perpendicular to the vertical direction. This is a storage box with a variable partition.
Further, in the present invention, two or more partition plates (a) or (b) are overlapped, and the insertion grooves provided in each are fitted to each other, so that it appears as a single partition plate to the box. The storage box with a variable partition that can be mounted is also a preferable example.
In addition, the above-mentioned storage box with a variable partition, which is constituted by a combination of a partition plate (a) having a large number of vertical insertion grooves and a partition plate (b) not having the insertion grooves, is also mentioned as a preferable example. .

Furthermore, in the storage box with a variable partition according to the present invention, as the partition plate (a) or (b), a plurality of types of plates having different lengths are prepared and prepared according to the size of the articles to be stored. It is preferable that a plate having a suitable length is selected from a plurality of types of plates.
And as a suitable usage method of the storage box with a variable partition of this invention, when storing and conveying articles | goods in said storage box with a variable partition, according to the magnitude | size of an article, a partition plate (a) or (b ) Is changed to change the size of the partition section, and the article is stored and conveyed.

  According to the present invention, the vertical and horizontal positions of the partition plate can be freely changed, and the position and size of the partition can be completely freely changed, and the partition can be stably held. In addition, a storage box that can be stored without being reinforced by overlapping the partition plates, or without diffusing a plurality of partition plates attached to a single storage box. Can be provided. In particular, the storage box with a variable partition of the present invention is useful as a storage box used to prevent the article from being damaged by moving the article in the box while the article is stored in the storage box and transported. Since the size of the compartment in the box can be freely changed in accordance with the size of the article to be conveyed, it is not necessary to prepare a large number of storage boxes for storage and transportation having various compartments as in the prior art.

The storage box of the present invention can be used not only for storing and transporting industrial articles, but also for storing household articles and commercial articles for exhibition. Therefore, the material is plastic, wood, metal, or a composite thereof. Etc. can be arbitrarily selected. Further, the size is not particularly limited, and it is a matter of course that appropriate modifications are included as long as the shape is a box shape.
For example, as an example of a storage box for industrial articles, it is made of plastic such as hard polypropylene and has a length, width, and depth of about 5 to 40 cm, 5 to 40 cm, and 2 to 30 cm, respectively. Of course, there is no problem even if it is larger than the above range.

The present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a top plan view of a box body with a cover of the storage box of the present invention removed.
The box 1 has vertical fitting groove groups 3 and 3 'on the entire inner side surface 2 thereof. Each vertical insertion groove group has a structure in which a plurality of vertical insertion grooves are arranged in parallel on the same surface. The vertical insertion groove groups 3 and 3 'are formed and attached at the same time when the box is formed, or after the box is formed, a sheet having a plurality of vertical insertion grooves is bonded and fused to the inside of the box. It can also be provided by being integrated by adhesion or the like. In the present invention, the groove and the small ridge constituting the groove are collectively referred to as a groove. In the drawings, instead of displaying the groove on the entire inner side surface of the box, a partial display is used.

  FIG. 2 is a partial perspective view of a groove having a swelling head at an end of the groove as an example of the vertical fitting grooves 3 and 3 ′ provided on the entire inner side of the box. The structure of the groove is used for both the box side surface and the partition plate. The fitting grooves 3, 3 'are substantially equally spaced, for example, 3 to 10 (the spacing between the grooves is for inserting the partition plate or the mating groove protrusion, so the entire wall surface or the required number of the walls can be separated by about 1 to 5 mm. Attached.

  And it is preferable to provide such a vertical insertion groove group in the whole vertical wall in a box. By providing it on the entire surface, the partition plate can be fitted and arranged at an arbitrary position of the box, and an effect that can be handled by one type of box is exhibited. Of course, it does not matter if the insertion groove is provided in the specific area. And in this invention, a partition plate (a) is inserted in the insertion groove | channel of the vertical wall surface of a box, and first, a box is divided | segmented into the vertical direction (number of partition plates + 1) division (in FIG. 1, 4). And 4 'partition plate (a) divided into three compartments). Note that the number of partition plates referred to here means that when two or more plates are overlapped to function as one plate as described later, the plurality of partition plates are counted as one.

Moreover, the vertical insertion groove group exists in the horizontal wall surface of a box so that the partition plate (b) mentioned later may be inserted and fixed. In FIG. 1, vertical fitting groove groups are provided on the entire upper side wall surface (two locations, three on the lower side wall surface).
Further, the partition plates (a) 4 and 4 'are provided with a vertical insertion groove group 7 similar to the vertical wall surface and the horizontal wall surface of the box, and the vertical insertion groove and the box body of the vertical insertion groove group 7 are provided. Between the insertion groove of the vertical insertion groove group 3 ′ installed at the corresponding position of the horizontal wall surface, or between the insertion groove of the vertical insertion groove group 7 provided on the partition plate (a) 4 and the partition plate (a) 4 ′. A partition plate (b) is inserted between the vertical insertion groove group 7 provided in the corresponding position and inserted, and further division is performed.

  The insertion groove width of the vertical insertion groove group is substantially equal to or slightly larger than the thickness of the partition plate (a) or (b) to be inserted, so that the partition plate (a) or (b) can be freely attached and detached. Can be inserted. Further, even when the interval between the insertion grooves is slightly narrower than the thickness of the partition plate (a) or (b), the partition plate is inserted while slightly expanding the narrow insertion groove, so that the partition plate is firmly inserted into the insertion groove. This is also preferable in this case. Furthermore, the insertion grooves may be inserted.

  As the shape of the fitting groove, a groove having a normal vertical wall, a groove having a slightly narrow cross section toward the base, or the like can be used. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, a unit wall (or a groove) is formed. A groove in which the head of the ridge) has a bulging shape may be used. The insertion groove having a wall having a bulged cross section is a preferred example because the bulged head is flexible and can be easily inserted when a partition plate is inserted.

  In addition, in the case of an insertion groove having a wall having a bulged section, the end portion inserted into the insertion groove of the partition plates (a) and (b) has a bulged bulge to prevent it from coming out of the insertion groove. You may have. By adopting such a structure, it is possible to prevent the article from being damaged by the movement of the article on which the partition plate is detached from the insertion groove and being fixed during the conveyance of the article.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the groove having the bulged section has a further flexibility in the groove wall when each wall is provided with a finely spaced cut in a direction substantially perpendicular to the length direction of the groove. The effect which was excellent in removal | desorption of a partition plate is shown. Such a molded product can be selected from products manufactured by the present applicant as one type of surface fastener (trade name, Magilock). That is, a sheet in which a plurality of bulged ridges (raising) continuously exist on one side of the plastic sheet in the length direction of the sheet is created, and substantially perpendicular to the length direction of the bulged ridges. It is a hook-and-loop fastener manufactured by adjusting the interval between cuts without making a cut in the direction and stretching the sheet in the length direction.

The shape of the swollen head need not be a complete circle, and may be any shape such as an ellipse, a polygon, a square, a rectangle, and a trapezoid. It is preferable that one cut is made per 2-10 mm in the length direction of the bulged ridge (raised), and the cut width is preferably 1-6 mm.
If the distance from the groove bottom to the groove inlet of the unit wall of the groove (that is, the depth of the groove) is too deep, the partition plate or the wall of the box body will be thick, resulting in poor article storage. If it is too shallow, the insertion groove becomes shallow, and the partition plate is not sufficiently fixed. Preferably it is the range of 4-10 mm.

  The partition plate (a) is fitted and mounted in the vertical insertion grooves on the opposing surfaces inside the box. The partition plate (a) can be provided with a vertical insertion groove similar to the above on a smooth surface or at least one surface depending on the purpose. The partition plate having a smooth surface is suitable when the obtained section is fixed and the inside thereof is not further partitioned.

  Furthermore, another partition plate (b) is arranged in a state orthogonal to the partition plate (a). At least one end of the partition plate (b) must be connected to the partition plate (a). One end that is not connected to the partition plate (a) is inserted into a vertical insertion groove 3 ′ standing on the inner wall surface of the storage box, and both ends are fixed. Like the box vertical wall surface and the horizontal wall surface described above, vertical fitting groove groups exist on the surface of the partition plate (a). However, they may be provided at the time of molding the partition plate or after the molding. It may be integrated with the surface.

Furthermore, in this invention, a division | segmentation can also be further divided into small by providing a vertical insertion groove group in the surface of a partition plate (b), and inserting a partition plate (c) there.
In the conventional partition box, as shown in Patent Document 1, a partition plate that is orthogonal to only the position of the kerf attached to the partition plate can be mounted, and the partition plate that is orthogonal at an arbitrary position. Could not be placed. On the other hand, in the present invention, the vertical insertion groove 7 is provided on one surface or both surfaces of the partition plate (a), and the next partition plate (b) is inserted into the groove so that the arrangement thereof is free. I succeeded in making it. The vertical insertion groove 7 provided in the partition plate is provided in an appropriate range on the entire surface, a half surface, or a portion where the partition plate arrangement is expected. If this relationship is continued, the compartments in the storage box can be arbitrarily subdivided. A partition plate that is sufficient only by the partition does not have a fitting groove on its surface.

  Moreover, since the partition plate of the present invention has a fitting groove on its surface and the grooves can be fitted, the grooves can be engaged with each other by crimping two sheets, and can be used as a single partition plate 6 in appearance. This can be used as a partition plate requiring strength. Furthermore, unnecessary partition plates can be stored together by fitting and engaging the partition plates. Although the storage management of the plurality of partition plates is complicated, the engagement of the partition plates facilitates storage in the box and can prevent the partition plates from being dissipated.

  In the storage box of the present invention, it is preferable that a lid is attached to the box body in order to maintain the above-described partition plate more stably and to prevent the article from moving and being damaged by vibration during transportation. The lid suitably used in the present invention is preferably provided with minute irregularities on the entire inner surface thereof. The unevenness has a size in close contact with the upper side of the partition plate, and if a gap is formed, the effect cannot be expected so much. In the storage box of the present invention, since the partition plate can be arranged at an arbitrary position, the upper side of the storage box cannot be assumed in advance. Therefore, it is preferable to provide minute irregularities on the entire inner surface of the lid.

The surface with minute irregularities is preferably made of a flexible material. There are no particular restrictions on the shape of the irregularities, and a smooth spherical surface, conical shape, intersecting groove, mushroom shape, or the like can be used. Since long-term use may cause dust adhesion, a shape that is less likely to adhere and easy to clean should be selected. From this point, a spherical surface or a conical shape is a preferable example.
The height of the convex portions of the minute irregularities is preferably 1 to 5 mm, and the distance between adjacent convex portions is preferably 1 to 5 mm.

The upper surface top view of the box body which removed the cover of the storage box of this invention. The fragmentary perspective view which shows an example of the vertical insertion groove group provided in the storage box inner wall and partition plate of this invention. The fragmentary perspective view of an example in the case of having a cut | interruption in the vertical insertion groove group used for this invention.
