Description

  The present invention provides a packaging box for articles such as cosmetics stored in a compact container such as a foundation or eye shadow, cosmetics such as a hand mirror with a lid, office supplies or stationery stored in a case with a lid. The present invention relates to a container holding sheet that can arrange an article in a packaging box with a simple configuration when housed, and also has a shock-absorbing effect against an impact of dropping the article.

  Conventionally, among various life-related items such as cosmetics and office supplies, in a container with a lid (for example, a compact container; an item storage container) for storing these items (for example, a foundation), a box made of paper or synthetic resin ( Packaged) and sold. In order to suppress the movement of the article storage container during distribution, the packaging box is usually manufactured to a size as close as possible to the article storage container to be stored.

  However, compact containers such as eye shadows are small in size, so the size of the packaging box is inevitably small, and there is little area for printing product names and product taglines, which impacts consumers. There was a problem of lacking. If an attempt is made to provide a window or the like for showing the product in the packaging box, the printed surface will be further reduced, which may be undesirable in terms of appealing to consumers. Further, if the packaging box and the article storage container accommodated in the packaging box have the same size, there is a high risk that the shock caused by vibration or dropping during distribution is transmitted to the internal article storage container, leading to damage to the article.

  In order to increase the product appeal effect to consumers, the size of the packaging box is made larger than the article that accommodates the box, and the mount is produced so that the position of the accommodated article is fixed in the box ( For example, Patent Document 1), or an inner case formed by vacuum forming or the like in accordance with the container shape was manufactured (for example, see Patent Document 2).

  However, in the above countermeasures, in order to manufacture a mount and an inner case as in Patent Documents 1 and 2, the position of the container is fixed and the product is tilted so as not to move in the box. In order to eliminate the need for the mounting, the shape of the mount becomes complicated, the manufacturing cost of the mount and the inner case increases, and the manufacturing of the molded product as in Patent Document 2 also requires the manufacture of a mold, which further increases the cost. There has been a problem that becomes higher.

  On the other hand, the product storage container rotates due to vibrations when distributing the packaging box containing the product storage container, and the product appearance intended by the manufacturer, such as a design that weaves the product storage container and the packaging box, does not appear. In order to prevent this, a bent portion is provided in the packaging box for the purpose of preventing the article storage container from rotating (for example, Patent Document 3). However, these have the effect of preventing the rotation of the article storage container, but they are not taken into consideration until the article storage container is held, and the article storage container is supported by the bottom surface or used as an article storage container such as a blister case. We had to deal with it by making the one with a close shape. Further, if the folding portion is directly provided on the decorative box or the mount, the operation of storing the product becomes very difficult. And the buffering effect with respect to the impact at the time of physical distribution etc. did not suggest at all in patent document 3. FIG.

  Furthermore, the present inventor filed an application for a cushioning material sheet as shown in Patent Document 4 with the aim of cushioning the impact during physical distribution. We confirmed a certain effect regarding the buffering effect, but when installing the buffer material sheet or storing it in the packaging box, after opening the lid of the article container and mounting the buffer material sheet, the work such as closing the lid again There was a problem that it took time and effort.

  Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an example of an embodiment of the present invention as seen from the front side. In the present embodiment, the article storage container 1 storing the eye shadow is stored in the packaging box 3 together with the container holding sheet 2 of the present invention. The packaging box 3 is formed by forming a bottom surface of the box with a flap formed by extending downward from the front side and bending it, and making a notch in the bent portion to make a protrusion 6.
a is formed. Further, the back surface of the packaging box 3 is extended upward to form a signboard portion 7, and a hanging hole 8 is formed in the signboard portion 7 as means capable of suspending the packaging box 3. In addition, when showing each direction after that, the direction which shows the space | interval of the back side opposite to a front side and a front side is "thickness direction; Y" (it may call an insertion direction), and the packaging box 3 The direction indicating the distance between the top surface and the bottom surface is defined as “height direction; Z”, and the direction indicating the distance between the remaining two side surfaces is defined as “width direction; X”.

  FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the configuration of the present invention, as seen from the back side. A part of the back surface of the packaging box 3 extends downward to form a projection 6b, and functions as a self-supporting means for the packaging box 3 together with the projection 6a on the front side.

  FIG. 3 is similar to FIG. 2, but shows symbols indicating the dimensions of the article storage container 1, container holding sheet 2, and packaging box 3.

  The article storage container 1 is formed by a container main body 5 and a lid portion 4, and the container main body 5 and the lid portion 4 have a connecting portion 9 that is rotatably connected via a hinge. A gap portion 11 necessary for the lid portion 4 to rotate is formed. Although both sides of the gap portion 11 are closed in FIG. 2, the entire width of the article storage container 1 can be made the gap portion 11 so that the lower side of the hinge portion is also a gap. However, if the gap 11 occupies the entire width of the article storage container 1, the article weekly reporter container 1 may move in the lateral direction, so it is desirable to provide means for fixing the position (not shown). . In order to obtain the effect of the present invention, the width (X1b) of the gap 11 is desirably 70% or more of the width (X1a) of the article storage container 1. More preferably, it is 75% or more, and most preferably 80% or more. If the width (X1b) of the gap 11 is formed to be 70% or more of the width (X1a) of the article storage container 1, the effects of the present invention can be sufficiently achieved.

  The container holding sheet 2 is composed of a single sheet, and is a size accommodated in the packaging box 3 and is substantially the same as or slightly smaller than the packaging box 3. With such a size, the container holding sheet 2 does not move inadvertently in the packaging box 3, and the position of the article storage container 1 when displayed is determined. The container holding sheet 2 is formed with an insertion portion 12 that can be inserted into the gap portion 11 of the article storage container 1. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the insertion portion 12 is formed by cutting a sheet and bending it at a predetermined height (Z2b) by about 90 °. When the insertion portion 12 is inserted into the gap portion 11, if the insertion direction dimension (Y2b) of the insertion portion 12 is too larger than the insertion direction dimension (Y1b) of the gap portion 11, the insertion portion 12 is cut to an appropriate length. Here, in the relationship between the insertion direction dimension (Y2b) of the insertion part 12, the insertion direction dimension (Y1b) of the gap part 11, and the thickness dimension (Y3a) of the packaging box 3, the insertion part 12 is included in the packaging box 3. Is desirably designed so as not to escape from the gap 11 (at least the following relational expression is preferably satisfied; [Y3a <Y1b + Y2b]). Further, the insertion portion 12 is cut in a U shape in FIG. 2, but may be cut in a window shape. Furthermore, the tip corner portion of the insertion portion 12 may be rounded in consideration of ease of insertion.

  The width direction dimension (X2b) of the insertion portion 12 of the container holding sheet 2 should be manufactured as wide as possible in order to hold the article storage container 1, and is a dimension that can be inserted into the gap portion 11. The dimension is preferably 70% or more of the width 1 (X1a), more preferably 75% or more, and most preferably in the range of 80% or more. The width-direction dimension (X2b) of the insertion portion 12 of the container holding sheet 2 can be made larger than the width (X1a) of the article storage container 1 (in this case, the width (X1b) of the gap 11 is set to the article storage container 1). However, when viewed from the front side of the packaging box 3, the insertion portion 12 will be visible, which is not a preferable form from the standpoint of displaying products and showing their beauty. It is preferable that the insertion portion 12 is formed smaller than the width of the article storage container 1 and is not conspicuous when viewed from the front side of the packaging box 3 when stored in the article storage container 1.

  Further, in the relationship between the article storage container 1 and the packaging box 3, the width (X3a) of the packaging box 3 is equal to the width (X3a) of the article storage container 1 in the width (X3a) of the packaging box 3 and the width (X1a) of the article storage container 1. X1a) is preferably 1.2 times or more. If it is this relationship, the impact at the time of dropping will not be directly transmitted to the article | item storage container 1, and it is preferable at the surface of the buffer effect. Further, regarding the relationship between the height (Z3a) of the packaging box 3 and the height (Z3a) of the article storage container 1, the height (Z3a) of the packaging box 3 is 1.2 of the height (Z1a) of the article storage container 1. It is preferable that it is twice or more.

  Further, regarding the relationship in the height direction (Z direction), when the article storage container 1 is accommodated in the packaging box 3 together with the container holding sheet 2, the physical distribution vibration is caused by the positional relation not touching the bottom surface of the packaging box 3. In addition, the impact at the time of dropping is not directly transmitted to the article storage container 1, and the buffering effect is increased. Therefore, the position of the insertion portion 12 is designed so that the article storage container 1 does not touch the bottom surface. As described above, it is preferable that the article storage container 1 is not in contact with the upper surface, the bottom surface, and the side surface of the packaging box 3 from the viewpoint of the buffer effect, and further, the article storage container 1 is accommodated in the packaging box 3 by being arranged in this way. The visual effect that the container 1 is accommodated as if it floats is also achieved, and the design as a product is improved.

  The material of the packaging box 3 is not particularly limited as long as it has an appropriate strength and elasticity and can maintain the shape, and is used for packaging daily commodities such as cosmetics and stationery such as synthetic resins and papers. Things can be used. From the ease of processing, such as printing on packaging boxes and making it transparent to show products, polyester resins (polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), etc.) and polyolefin resins (polyethylene (PE), A synthetic resin such as polypropylene (PP) or the like, acrylic resin (polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) or the like), or polystyrene resin (PS) is preferable. Moreover, if the whole or part of the packaging box 3 is transparent and the stored article storage container 1 is visible, it is preferable because the visual effect that the article storage container 1 is lifted can be appealed as described above. . Moreover, although the thickness of the packaging box 3 is arbitrary, the thing of the thickness of the range of 0.2-0.5 mm is used normally.

  The present invention is characterized in that the article storage container 1 is held by the container holding sheet 2, thereby providing a buffering effect and storing the article storage container 1 as if it floated in the packaging box 3. Has an exhibition effect. In order to effectively express the exhibition effect, it is desirable that the packaging box 3 be displayed in the state shown in FIG. For this purpose, a distribution and display box containing a plurality of packaging boxes 3 may be displayed at a storefront (not shown), and can stand on the packaging box 3 itself without any other support. Alternatively, it is possible to provide a suspendable means that can be suspended and displayed. It is more preferable that the packaging box 3 has a self-supporting means or a means that can be hung from the viewpoint that the display effect can be shown in units of individual boxes.

  As the self-supporting means, as described above, the protrusions 6a and 6b shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 are provided, or known self-supporting means as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2005-47522 (see FIG. 5). It can be illustrated. Moreover, as a means capable of suspending, the suspending hole 8 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is provided, a part of the flap on the upper surface of the packaging box is cut up to form a suspending hole, or attachment with a suspending hole is performed. A well-known method, such as sticking a tape on the flap part of the upper surface of a packaging box, can be illustrated.

  The material of the container holding sheet 2 can be selected from materials generally used for packaging materials as long as it has appropriate strength and elasticity, and can be manufactured into a thin plate shape. Polyester resin (polyethylene terephthalate (PET) ), Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT, etc.), polyolefin resins (polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), etc.), acrylic resins (polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), etc.) and polystyrene resins (PS), Alternatively, paper such as cardboard can be used. Among these, polyethylene terephthalate is preferable from the viewpoint of strength, elasticity, and cost.

  Moreover, although the thickness of the container holding sheet 2 is arbitrary, the thing of the thickness of the range of 0.2-0.5 mm is used normally. Needless to say, the thicker the thickness, the higher the strength.

  Furthermore, since the container holding sheet 2 holds the article storage container 1, the mass of the article storage container 1 also has a great influence. However, an excessively large mass should not be covered by the present invention, and a normal cosmetic or stationery, The thing of the mass of the range used with office supplies is used. If the packaging box 3 has a width or height of about 30 to 150 mm and a thickness of about 5 to 20 mm, the article storage container 1 to be stored has a mass in the range of 10 to 40 g. It is preferable that it is 10-30g.

  Next, a drop test is performed by giving an example and a comparative example of the present invention, and a difference in buffer effect (drop test 1) and a container holding ability (drop test 2) of the container holding sheet are confirmed. The outline of cosmetics, article storage containers, and container holding sheets used for the drop test will be described.
