  By the way, according to the pin hinge (see FIG. 1) of Patent Document 1, it is provided on one side of the box and the lid (provided by integral molding when the box and the lid are molded). After inserting the pins in series, a pin is driven from the cylindrical part at one end of the series into the cylindrical part at the other end and connected. There was a problem to be up.

  Also, when the cylindrical parts are arranged in series by fitting, if the adjacent end faces of the through holes in the cylindrical part do not match, the pin cannot be driven smoothly, and if the pin is forced, the pin buckles. Cause defective products

  According to the half-cut hinges of Patent Document 2 (see FIGS. 1, 6, and 7) and Patent Document 3 (see FIG. 22), the problem of pin hinges can be solved.

  However, the cutting edge of the half-cut hinge bites into the fold line of the half-cut hinge, and then the blade is moved along the half-cut hinge so that the hinge is cut. The edge will be divided.

  Then, even when the opposite side edge of the hinge between the box and the lid constituting the case is connected by a lock device, the side edge on the separated hinge side is opened by pulling in the separating direction and opened. As a result, the stored product in the case can be extracted, and the product is stolen as it is extracted.

  Furthermore, according to Patent Document 4, stoppers are provided on both sides of a half-cut fold line forming a hinge, and the penetrating tip of the cutter collides with the stopper and moves as the piercing tool pierces the fold line (along the fold line). Since it is made to stop, the movement of the cutter which does not penetrate through the broken line cannot be stopped.

  Then, the cutting is deepened by repeating the action of pressing the blade against the surface of the half-cut broken line and sliding the blade, and finally the broken line can be cut and divided, and as a result, the cutting is performed as described above. By pulling both edges of the hinges away from each other, the sides on the hinge side were opened, and the product was pulled out of the case as it was opened.

  Therefore, the present invention is to provide a case that solves the above-mentioned problems.

  In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention includes a box body and a lid body that is provided so as to open and close an opening for putting in and out the box body through a half-cut hinge on one side around the box body, In a case of a case comprising a locking device provided on the side parallel to the hinge of the box and lid so as to be locked and unlocked on the shop side, the required range on both sides of the hinge on the inner surface of the box and lid Further, a configuration is adopted in which an engaging portion is provided which is engaged with each other when the lid body is closed and stops the movement of the separating edge in the separating direction when the hinge is divided.

  A box, a lid provided on one side of the box to close the opening of the box via a half-cut hinge, the hinge of the box and the lid, and the hinge parallel to the hinge; Product opening provided on one side between the side and the side of the box and the lid, the side parallel to the hinge is locked on the shop side, and locked in conjunction with the unlocking on the shop side In a case comprising a locking device provided to collect parts and a retaining part for preventing product removal provided so as to close the extraction opening in the locked state under locking conditions, the box and lid An engagement portion is provided in a required range on both sides of the hinge on the body so as to stop the movement of the separating edge in the separating direction when the hinge is divided, with each other being engaged with each other when the lid is closed. Adopt the configuration.

  Then, even if the half-cut hinge is divided by the blade, the lid cannot be opened due to the engagement relationship of the engagement portions.

  As described above, according to the case of the present invention, both the edges on the hinge side separated by cutting the half-cut hinge of the case under the situation where the product is stored and locked by the locking device with the blade are separated. Even when trying to open while pulling in the direction, the opening is blocked by the engagement relationship of the half-cut hinge side edge of the box and lid constituting the case (the opposite side edge of the case hinge) Opening is prevented by a locked locking device).

  For this reason, the product stored in the case cannot be removed, and there is an excellent effect of preventing the product from being stolen.

  Even if the half-cut hinge is cut off from the blade, the lid is prevented from being opened by the engaging portion and the locking device that are engaged, and the product is removed from the insertion port by the retaining portion of the locking part of the locking device. This prevents the product from being removed from the case and is effective in preventing theft.

  In addition, even if the half-cut hinge is cut off by a cutter, even if it is used after connecting the cutting edge with an adhesive tape on the shop side, the adhesive tape is cut off by the cutter under the usage conditions, or adhesive Even if the tape is peeled off, the lid cannot be opened by the engaging portion in the engaging relationship.

  For this reason, the case can be reused.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  In the first embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the box A and the opening 2 of the box A are opened and closed via a half-cut hinge 1 on one side of the box A. A case K is formed by the lid B provided in this manner and the lock device C provided on the side parallel to the hinge 1 of the box A and the lid B so as to be locked and unlocked on the shop side.

  The box A and the lid B are molded from a synthetic resin, and the box A is continuous from the side wall 3 and the peripheral edge (each edge) of the side wall 3 and protrudes in the back surface direction of the side wall 3 in the illustrated case. In the illustrated case, the peripheral wall 4 and the lid B are connected to one side edge of the peripheral wall 4 via a half-cut hinge 1 and from the peripheral edge (three side edges) other than the hinge 1 of the side wall 5. The peripheral wall 6 protrudes in the direction of the back surface. The peripheral wall 4 is also coupled to the entire length of the side wall 3 in the illustrated case, and the peripheral wall 6 is also coupled to the entire length of the side wall 5 in the illustrated case. Instead, they may be coupled in a scattered manner so as to prevent extraction of the necessary part of the edge, that is, the product X stored in the case K.

  The product X is stored by fitting the center hole of the disk of the product X into the support portion 7 protruding from the back center of the side wall 3 of the box A shown in the figure, but the product X is not limited and stores the product. It may be a storage case.

  Further, on both sides parallel to the hinge 1 of the box A and the lid B, there are provided locking devices C that can be locked and unlocked on the shop side.

  In the illustrated case, the locking device C is provided with the parallel groove members 11, 11 connected from the edges of the side walls 3, 5 so as to be located outside the peripheral walls 6, 4 on the opposite side of the hinge 1. An insertion path 12 is formed by both of the groove members 11, 11 and protrudes in the opposite direction of the hinges 1 on both sides of the shop-side insertion member 13 inserted into the insertion path 12 (upward in FIG. 1). Hugs the projecting portion 15 projecting toward the hinge 1 side of both groove members 11, 11 to prevent the lid B from being opened relative to the box A, and the insertion member 13 A required number of latching claws 16 that are brought back into contact with the inner surface of the channel member 11 as a result of the insertion are provided, and the insertion path 12 matches the engagement claw 16 as the insertion of the insertion member 13 ends, and pushes back in accordance with the match. The latching claw 16 released is fitted into the engagement relationship. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, Japanese Patent No. 2928490, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. Hei 6-28134, Utility Model Registration No. 3014498, Patent No. 2794408, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-125817, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-80666, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-250739, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-211981, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 9-290856, etc. May be.

  In short, any device may be used as long as it can be locked by the lock device C after the lid B is closed to prevent the lid B from being opened, and the lock device C can be unlocked on the shop side.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, the anti-theft tag T is provided in the insertion member 13, and taking out of the case K from a shop is detected.

  The tag T has a unique ID code, for example, as is well known, and the resonance circuit resonates due to the generation of a high-frequency electromagnetic field installed at the entrance when passing through the store entrance and exit, and the unique ID code is transmitted. A high-frequency electromagnetic field is modulated and an alarm is issued to detect unauthorized removal of Case K.

  As shown in FIG. 17, the unlocking device 11 of the case K is overlapped with the unlocking device E on the shop side.

  Then, the iron piece 21 of each locking claw 16 is magnetically absorbed by the permanent magnet 91 embedded in the unlocking tool E, and the locking claw 16 is pulled upward in FIG. The engagement relationship with the part 17 is released.

  When the unlocking tool E is slid in the right direction in FIG. 17 in this situation, the insertion member 13 is forcibly slid in the pulling direction due to the collision between the end face of the unlocking tool E and the protruding portion 19 of the insertion member 13. The insertion member 13 can be pulled out from the path 12.

  Then, the locking by the locking device C is unlocked and the lid B can be opened.

  Of course, as the unlocking device E, one corresponding to the locking device C is used.

  In addition, 16 'in the figure is an auxiliary locking claw provided on the insertion member 13, and when the iron piece 21' of the auxiliary locking claw 16 'is magnetically absorbed by an unlocking operation by a permanent magnet (not shown) carried by the customer, Since the auxiliary locking claw 16 ′ is pulled upward in FIG. 19, and the auxiliary locking claw 16 ′ is engaged with the engaging portion 17 ′ in the insertion path 12, the insertion member 13 can be pulled out by the customer. Disappear. Reference numeral 20 denotes a cylindrical portion through which the protrusion 23 at the end in the insertion direction of the insertion member 13 provided in parallel on the inner surface of the both end-side groove members 11 of the insertion path 12 penetrates. This ensures the prevention of separation of the box A and the lid B.

Further, both sides P and P of the inner hinge 1 of the box A and the lid B are in a required range, and when the lid B is closed, the hinges 1 are separated from each other (by separation). Engaging portions 31 and 32 are provided to stop the movement in the separating direction.

  The engagement portions 31 and 32 are provided only at both ends of the hinge 1 as shown in FIG. 6, as well as at the central portion of the hinge 1 as shown in FIG. 7 and the hinge 1 as shown in FIG. 8. May be provided over the entire length.

  In the case shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, the engaging portions 31 and 32 are provided with a parallel protrusion on one side (on the side of the box A in the figure) and a protrusion on the other side (on the side of the lid B in the figure). Although a single insertion parallel hole (a hole is also possible) is provided, it is not limited. As shown in FIG. 12, a projecting shaft is provided on one side and a hole (a hole is also possible) on the other side, as shown in FIG. As described above, a protrusion may be provided on one side and a protrusion insertion hole (a hole may be provided) on the other side. Of course, a hole (a hole is acceptable) may be provided on the box A side, and a protruding piece, a protruding shaft, or a protrusion may be provided on the lid B side.

  And when closing the lid B with the hinge 1 as a fulcrum, only the engagement portion 31 side is secured so that the engagement of the engagement portion 31 with the engagement portion 32 is ensured. It is advisable to cut the corners or chamfer to avoid the tension caused by the collision on the engaging portions 31 and 32 side.

  It should be noted that the function of the two engaging portions 31 and 32 is deteriorated when the fingertips are hooked on the both edges of the splitting (due to separation) using the blade of the hinge 1 and pulled in directions opposite to each other. In order to prevent this, the thickness of the peripheral walls 4 and 6 and the thickness of the projecting portion 33 provided with the engaging portions 31 and 32 may be increased, or the strength may be adjusted by providing a rib 34 for preventing deformation.

  In the figure, reference numeral 36 denotes a stopper that stops the movement of the blade by the collision of the blade tip that penetrates the groove of the hinge 1 and this cutter 36 is dotted on one side of the groove of the hinge 1 in the illustrated case ( Provided to protrude from the inner surface of the side wall 5, and fitted into the interspersed recessed portions 37 on the inner surface of the peripheral wall 4 when the lid B is closed, but as shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-142833 36 may be arranged in a staggered pattern.

  If comprised as mentioned above, after accommodating the goods X in the box A, the cover B will be closed.

  As shown in FIG. 9 to FIG. 10 when the lid B is closed, the engaging portion 32 approaches the engaging portion 31, and as shown in FIG. 32 is engaged.

  In this state, the lock device C is locked on the shop side, and the case K is displayed on the shelf of the shop.

  Even if the customer takes out the case K displayed, then divides the half-cut of the hinge 1 with the blade carried by the customer, and pulls the divided halves in directions opposite to each other, both engaging portions 31, By maintaining the engagement relationship of 32, opening of the side of the dividing edge of the hinge 1 (box A and lid B) is prevented.

  Of course, the side of the case K parallel to the hinge 1 is prevented from being opened by the locking device C in the locked state.

  For this reason, it becomes impossible to extract the stored product X from the case K.

  The case K can be used as a sales or rental case by unlocking the lock by the locking device C on the shop side and collecting the insertion member 13 as a locking part on the shop side.
